success 223 failed 14 with crystal space and msv c++ 2008 express

[Necronology]

Trying to use windows only, and have the feeling when I click build that maybe I should build cs first then build cel? Is it just one big build? I get 18 errors trying to build walktest, cs, and cel all together saying it cant find csconfig.h and a search shows i don't have it on my hard drive. I have cel-src-2.0, crystalspace-src-2.0, and cs-win32libs-2.0_002. Any of you guys use straight up cs and cel with this compiler? is there a walkthrough i haven't been able to google yet?

>>update>>
I started over and this time just went into cs as per the instructions and tried to compile the workspace provived there for my version (9)
errors were much fewer!
success 223 failed 14

I'm not sure what to think of this...maybe there are multiple implementations of things and some can fail and that's ok??
