You should be able to figure out what is going on from the log files, you
might try

build -bw

or for a first time

build -cefbw

Note the latter will do a full rebuild. If you are still having problems
post the log here.

You can invoke build from visual studio using the DDKBUILD tool from
http://www.hollistech.com/. You should not try to build a driver directly
with visual c++, things are tricky enough that "experts" who try this leave
time bombs for others to clean up.
