Error Installing VF on Vista 64-bit system

I'm trying to install Visual Fortran on a Fresh Vista Machine.

By now I've figured out that Visual Studio integration isn't going to work, but command line is just fine.

So far I've installed the Intel Debugger an the the EMT64 compiler. However, when i try to run the build environment for fortran, I get the following error:

"The system cannot find the path specified" and then takes me to the
c:windowssystem32 prompt.

I'm guessing it's missing an environmental variable, but I'm not sure which one. Anyone have any ideas?

My guess is that you have not installed the Platform SDK as described in the Inetallation Guide. This is required to use the EM64T compiler if you don't have VS2005.

VS2005 should work fine in this environment.

I've installed the Platform SDK.

I've also installed VS2005, along with Service Pack 1.

The compiler still does not work. The EMT64 extension installs, but when i go to the build environment, I get the same error as yesterday.

When I try to install the Compiler Integrations for Visual Studio I get,

"The installation package is not supported by this processor type."

Any more ideas?

Ah, I thought that might be the case. That version does not support VS2005 (and VS2003 does not support development for x64.) 9.1 is the current version and it does support VS2005.

You should be able to do command line development if you install the compiler after installing the PSDK.
