Ok so I am in the same boat. I am actually trying to do it on vista though.
I got some stuff to compile on XP, but since
Vista came my way (legally free) im using it.
How far have you gotten it to build, lets share some details..
   Oh and once i can get a decent amount of stuff compiling, i will start
working on a engine for windows ;)
