I'm actually running Windows 8 and compiling on it fine, seems more like operator error. No idea whether this can help, but
here you go.

4) If, even after all that you still get LNK2005 errors, then it is time to scratch your head and think, "Gee, did I or any third party put in any include files that force .lib files to be included in the linking stage?" Start scouring that source code for any #pragma comment(lib, ...) statements. This happens particularly with MFC libraries since there is code floating around out there that forces the MFC libraries to be linked in at link time first and then forces the other libraries to be excluded - including such code with a non-MFC project causes all sorts of headaches since the other libraries are loaded first and thus can't be excluded by the #pragma and then the MFC libraries attempt to get linked in and fail. But it can happen in other cases as well - even indirectly via a third-party library.
