I do it this way:

set MSVCDIR=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003
set MSSDKDIR=C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDK
set INCLUDE=%MSVCDIR%\include;%MSSDKDIR%\include
set LIB=%MSVCDIR%\lib;%MSSDKDIR%\lib
set PATH=%MSVCDIR%\bin;%MSSDKDIR%\bin;%MSSDKDIR%\bin\win64;%PATH%

cd <<boost root directory>>
bjam "-sTOOLS=vc-7_1" install

I have "Microsoft Platform SDK February 2003" installed in "C:\Program 
Files\Microsoft SDK" and add the "bin\win64" directory to the PATH in 
order to use the "lib" command which is not distributed with the MSVC 
Toolkit 2003.

Note that not all targets are build successfully because some debug 
runtime libraries are not distributed with the MSVC Toolkit.

Regards.
