I have no problems with Visual Studio 2010 or VS 2010 Express. The following link may help: http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/GitMSBuild There is no need to set the VS 64-bit command prompt and run cmake-gui from inside it. I generally run cmake-gui by just clicking on the icon. Try running cmake-gui directly and not from the command prompt.
I am able to build both VTK and the Wiki Examples Ok. I do get problems when running the batch file in the above link but they are related to the MS development environment not VTK. Certainly it seems that building using the IDE seems to go faster.
