Errors when generating in CMake

[TylerBarnes]

I keep getting errors when I try to generate the files in cmake.
I've been trying to follow the guide as closely as possible and yes, I did download and install the dependencies.
I downloaded and installed Microsoft Visual Studio Express 2013 for Windows Desktop. 2012 wasn't available.
Not sure what's going on here but hopefully you guys can help this noob out.
I'm using Windows 7 64 bit
