Compiling iTGB 1.2 in VS2008

iTGB frequently locks up my machine and the very good suggestion was made that, since i have the source, i should recompile and see what happens. Problem is, when i try compiling either TGBGame or TorqueGameBuilder, i get 54 linker errors

i'm following the instructions i wrote for myself to compile 1.7.4 (which is based on the various TDN posts), which include the big 3 problems with compiling TGB (turn off "Treat wchar_t as Built-in Type", set _WIN32_WINNT 0x0400 to 0x0501 and replace "afxres.h" with "windows.h"). This compiler has compiled TGB so it has all the proper platform SDK paths setup. i don't remember seeing this linking problem before in TGB and didn't see anything for TGB or iTGB when i did a forum search so i'm wondering if it's iTGB specific

The errors come from different files - consoleFunctions, simBase, t2dImageMapDatablock, t2dTrigger, compiledEval, consoleInternal, etc.

Sample errors:
