Hi Dave,
1. I dont have BOOST_ROOT defined in my environment.
2. I still get messages with loading jam files when I try
C:\temp\boost_1_32_0>bjam -sBOOST_ROOT=."-sTOOLS=vc-7_1" install
I hope that really was: C:\temp\boost_1_32_0>bjam -sBOOST_ROOT=. "-sTOOLS=vc-7_1" install OK, I really don't have much of a clue as to what could be wrong :-( But here are some things to try. First you could answer my original question as to what your environment has by doing: C:\temp\boost_1_32_0>set And posting the output. You should check that "JAMFILE" is not set in the env. And you already checked "BOOST_ROOT". If "JAMFILE" is set in your env, unset it and try again. You should do a search in that "boost_1_32_0" tree for files named "Jamfile" and post that list. There should be such files in places like "C:\temp\boost_1_32_0\libs\thread\build\Jamfile". If you don't have those files either the OS prevented you from creating them when you extracted the archive, or you archive program did not extract them. If the later the you should get a different program to extract the archive.
