This is my first compile of neptune121, so I have never tried it
before.

I have the February 2003 version of the platform SDK.

It was a completely clean build.

I have two different versions of Visual Studio and two different
versions of the Platform SDK on my machine. I am using Visual
Studio version 6 to compile helix (win32-i386-vc6).
