Could you provide some details about your nmake.opt file?
Have you edited/customized this file for your needs?

What you mean "problems with the MSVCRT80.dll" ?

Note, that with VC++ 2005 (no matter what edition) new policy has been
introduced, msvcrt80.dll named to msvcr80.dll etc.
So, you need to deploy all dependencies DLLs to machines you are going
to use your application/library.
