GregGozzo,
Try to run setenv.bat from Visual Studio Command Prompt.
On my machine these shortcuts are located in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\Tools\Shortcuts, if you are building 32-bit version, use "VS2013 x86 Native Tools Command Prompt".
I agree with bnoble1206 - getting it up and running on Linux might be much easier. You can use VirtualBox for that.
