    I have just finally got bcrypt to install which requires building on win7 64 bit environment, it's been a pain in the neck to get sorted. With my situation I followed the instructions for bcrypt and for node-gyp. The clincher for me was installing the Microsoft Windows 7 SDK and .Net 4 framework. Once that was installed (and I had restarted my shell) I found I could compile everything via the install for bcrypt. So I was just wondering if you installed the SDK? I ask as you didn't mention it in your list. Commented Jan 13, 2013 at 22:01
