Our scripts and build process only know how to work with that specific version of the SDK. You should install that version if possible. Does that version of the SDK not work on 64-bit Windows 7? Also, the SDK is only required if you are building with Visual C++ Express (as opposed to Visual Studio). If you are using Visual Studio and the script is telling you to install the SDK, that's a bug. -Adam
