To get things work in vc 7.1:
1) build the libraries
2) specify the boost root as include path in vstudio (tools, options, select 
projects folder in the dialog, select vc++ directories, 'show directies for' 
and add the the boos root path)
3) make sure thta a path setting to lib and dll's is added to the windows 
environment (or copy everything to 1 outut directory).

I 've made an article about these steps:
http://www.codeproject.com/KB/tips/Building_boost_libraries.aspx, but I should 
update it for boost 1.35 and vstudio 2008
