Perhaps you didn't install the C++ compiler tools? Rc.exe is part of the C++
toolset.
I have rc.exe installed in three locations:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\bin\rc.exe
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\Tools\Bin\RC.Exe
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\SDK\v2.0\Bin\rc.exe
(this was from a VS2005 command prompt).

with following error :
============================================================================
