I've followed the guide down to:

"c) Use CMake to build the required Visual Studio Solution and Project files

Launch your CMake program, typically labeled CMake (cmake-gui). Eg: Start -> CMake 2.8 -> CMake
To the right of the 'Where is the source code' box, click 'Browse Source' and expand the tree, C:\EQ\, click once on Source and then click OK, so the entry in the 'Where is the source code' box should read C:/EQ/Source/
To the right of the 'Where to build the binaries box', click 'Browse Build', expand the tree down to C:\EQ\Source. With 'Source' highlighted, click 'Make New Folder'. Name the new folder Build and click OK. The 'Where to build the binaries box' should now have C:/EQ/Source/Build in it.
Click on Configure.
In the next dialogue that says 'Specify the generator for this project', select 'Visual Studio 12'. Click on Finish.
Some messages should appear in the lower window with hopefully no errors.

Ensure you tick EQEMU_BUILD_LUA then click on Configure again.
(OPTIONAL) If you want to use 'Bots' on your server, click the box next to EQEMU_ENABLE_BOTS and then click Configure again.
(OPTIONAL) If you want to run your own local login server (useful if you want to work on your server disconnected from the internet- on a laptop, for example) then tick EQEMU_BUILD_LOGIN.
Click on Generate and CMake should say 'Generating done' in the output window. You can now close CMake."

However, when specifying the generator for the project. If I choose Visual Studio 12 it says, "Error in configuration process, project files may be invalid". Makes sense seeing as I couldn't install it. I did succesfully install Visual C++ 2010 Express. But, when I select Visual Studio 10 I get a Microsoft Windows popup that says:

"Microsoft Resource File To COFF Object Conversion Utility has stopped working.

A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."

And then the same error, "Error in configuration process, project files may be invalid".

I've followed the steps to the letter so far. Double checking everything. Any ideas?

Again, thanx for the help.
