I think VC2005 is not set correctly up. These errors are mainly "File not found"-errors, but the files exist.
Here is the buildlog:

looks like you need to change the include directory path.

Your best bet is to get ahold of VC6 to compile the code with.  When I first started playing around with code I tried it on VS.NET 2004, I got around 500 errors.  There are a couple of graphics function calls that they partly expand and I guess its not ANSI.  Compiling with VC6 it went the first time.
