Note: the Boost directory should be lowercase. Windows may not care, but
other systems do.
And you should always use forward slashes for includes. They work pretty
much everywhere, unlike backslashes.

That said, this sounds like you haven't set up the include paths
correctly. You need to add the Boost base directory to your Visual
Studio include path. (Tools->Options->Directories, I believe.)

You should also add the install/stage directory to the library path, or
else compiled libraries won't be found during linking.#
