I followed instruction on http://nginx.org/en/docs/howto_build_on_win32.html.
Once I run "nmake -f objs/Makefile", I got the following error:

$ nmake -f objs/Makefile

"c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio

cd objs/lib/pcre-8.40
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'cd' : return code '0x1'
Stop.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"c:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio

Please help me out.
