(Please excuse me it this is a duplicate post - I tried to send it yesterday and it didn't seem to arrive) I have Boost 1_28_0 and installed the prebuilt version of Jam for Windows. After installing threads with C:\boost_1_28_0>bjam "-sTOOLS=borland" I get, after skipping the pyton stuff, and all the install messages: ...found 390 targets... However when I try to use the thread I get the following: Borland C++ 5.5.1 for Win32 Copyright (c) 1993, 2000 Borland testthread1.cpp: Fatal F1003 \boost_1_28_0\boost/thread/thread.hpp 17: Error directive: Thread support is unavailable! *** 1 errors in Compile *** I believe that I followed all the directions...I'm using Windows XP Home. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Greg
