Ok here goes. 
 
What you need to do is to take that nmake.exe file and put it not in C:\perl but in C:\perl\bin directory.... Now run the config of perl and leave EVERYTHING as default, including the nmake.exe because it will find it this way... NOW try installing your IO::Scalar....  
 
Oh one thing you have to change if you are behind a router, you will have to put your proxy (read, your ip address of your router to act as a gateway) Otherwise leave everything alone, it will do it all on its own beleive it or not..
