Hello Alexis,
Note that the Intel Compiler 11.x now comes self included with all the Visual Studio requirements. For earlier versions, however, here is what you need ... though it has been a long time since I had to go through this procedure, and version number might have to be updated:
Task 1. Download and Install Visual Studio C++ Express
Follow the instruction from the link:
msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/visualc/download/
You should download an executable named “vcsetup.exe”
Run and follow the installation instructions. Note that although this package includes “.NET Framework 2.0” you will have to install “.NET Framework 3.0”.
You will also have to restart your computer.
Task 2. Download and install Microsoft Platform SDK
Go to the download section of the Microsoft website:
www.microsoft.com/downloads
Search for “Platform SDK R2”
Select “Windows Server 2003 R2 Platform SDK Web Install” and follow the instructions to download and install.
Task 3. Download and install the .NET Framework
Again, go to the download section of the Microsoft website and search for “NET Framework 3.0”
Select “Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0 Redistributable Package” and follow the instruction to download and install .NET Framework. This will take several minutes.
