[Boost-users] Cannot build boost on MSVS8 per instructions

I am attempting to build and install boost_1_33_1 using the MSVS 8
instructions at 

 

http://www.boost.org/tools/build/v1/vc-8_0-tools.html

 

and the prebuilt  bjam boost-jam-3.1.13-1-ntx86.zip
<http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/boost/boost-jam-3.1.13-1-ntx86.zip?downl
oad> 

 

and bjam fails (apparently) with a "send error report" dialog every time it
is run.

 

I also tried the instructions at
http://lists.boost.org/boost-users/2006/09/21938.php with the same results. 

 

What am I doing wrong? Do I have the wrong version of bjam.exe?  Why the two
different sets of instructions?

 

Best Regards,
