I have tried to compile the SL client using the version control 
repository and cmake. I have gotten different errors an three different 
machines. Last night, I was able to get farther through the process than 
I have before, but I still received the following error in VS2005.

I have used the build instructions at 
http://wiki.secondlife.com/wiki/Compiling_the_viewer_(MSVS2005) and I 
have the fmodvc.lib library in 
E:\Documents\sl_1_19_1_14\linden\libraries\i686-win32\lib_debug and 
E:\Documents\sl_1_19_1_14\linden\libraries\i686-win32\lib_release. I'm 
building on Windows Vista Ultimate (32-Bit) and am running Visual Studio 
as an administrator.

Any help would be appreciated.
