2. Click Run and again.
3. Agree to the licenses.
4. Click Next.
5. Compilers: Visual C++ 9.0 (Visual studio 2008).
6. Variants: (1) Multithread (2) Multithread Debug

1. Click Next
2. Now untick every box except:
   • Boost Header files (you dont need to do this every time you add more libraries)
     
   • Boost Start menu shortcut
     
   • Tools
     
   • Boost DateTime
     
   • Boost FileSystem
     
   • Boost Regex
     
   • Boost System
     
   • Boost Thread

Take note of where you saved boost.
