-====OpenGL Extension Wrangler (GLEW)====
-#Download the OpenGL Extension Wrangler binaries from the website listed above. Extract the files into a directory of your choice. In this case, I have extracted them to: C:\Development\Add-On Libraries\GLEW\
-#Secondarily, if you intend to build and use the debug version of the gsDX plugin, you will need to manually copy glew32.dll to the \bin subdirectory of your pcsx2 installation. For example, if you followed the defaults on a 32-bit system, you'd put it here: C:\Program Files\pcsx2\bin
-====Windows 2003 R2 Platform SDK (Visual C++ 2008 Express ONLY)====
-#If you are compiling using Visual C++ 2008 Express, in order to compile several of the plugins, you will need files that are not included with your version of Visual Studio by default. Download the Windows 2003 R2 Platform SDK Web Installer from the link above, #and run the installer. Click Next at the Welcome Screen shown below.
-#Accept the EULA and click Next.
-#Choose the Typical install when prompted and click Next.
-#I recommend leaving the installation at the default directory to ensure there are no problems in the future.

-#Accept the default installation destination and click next.
-#The default component selection will suffice for PCSX2 compilation, however, you can add anything that is not selected if you want it and the source code examples and documentation are not required (and will shave 30-40MB off of the install).
-#Review the confirmation screen and click Next to continue.
-#The installer will begin the install process.
