Hi Mike,<br><div class="gmail_quote"><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">I
use the boost pre-compiled all the time and I don't have any of these
issues BUT I do set the BOOST_ROOT environment variable in "My
Computer->Advanced Settings" after I install which may be the
difference. I use threads, program_options, testing, filesystem and
system.<br>

I did notice in the FindBoost that there is a subtle difference in how the directory names are generated:<br>
<br>
I think one has boost_1_38 while another has boost-1_38 depending on windows or unix.<br>
