Hi

I also encountered the same problem, tried this solution.
This worked for one of my project, but not for other one.

On looking at development code of boost, It appears that they might have solved this in new version
Tried that code and it worked

Here is the solution:
Create a file with name "boost_conversion.h" and contents given below and include it before any boost include in you code

boost_conversion.h
____________________________________________________________________________________________________
/*
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

This file is a hack to boost_1_37\boost\date_time\gregorian\conversion.hpp file
When boost_1_37\boost\date_time\gregorian\conversion.hpp is compiled under Visual Studio 2003.NET
foillowing error appear:
fatal error C1001: INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR
        (compiler file 'msc1.cpp', line 2708) 
         Please choose the Technical Support command on the Visual C++ 
         Help menu, or open the Technical Support help file for more information
The same issue is also reported on boost-user group, please refer followin hyperlink:
http://archive.netbsd.se/?ml=boost-users&a=2009-02&t=9851835
This issue might solve in boost 1.40 version.
This code is modified from boost taking code from development version of boost
