I'm sure you probably have a logical reason to want to do this, but I thought
I'd ask anyway... Why would you want to use the Intel compiler? It doesn't
produce as efficient (performance-wise anyway) code as the Microsoft compiler.
Don't get upset for me asking. I'm not being a smart-a$$ or anything. I
just thought I'd save you some trouble if you were figuring that the Intel
compiler is better. I've done considerable testing on it and code produced
with Microsoft's has consistently outperformed code produced with the Intel
compiler.

I took over the SF DVDx project (http://www.labdv.com/dvdx) and the Release
version compiles only with Intel compiler. I guess it's because Intel
provided some assembly MPEG encoder code at the project beginning when they
help the author to make best performance with Intel CPU (they sent hile Intel
hardware and compiler).
I don't want to rewrite the whole "Intel specific" parts, because I'm not a
C++ guru.
DVDx compiles usually with VS C++ 6.0, DX SDK, Intel C++ 8.0 but I prepared
my machine with latest greatest VS2005, Intel 9.0 and I already corrected
some code to compile the Debug version with VS2005.
Now I can invoke the Intel C++ from VS2005, I'd be able to release DVDx.

Sorry. I don't know how to get it to work from within VS. That's why I
asked just in case I could save you some hassle. I am interested in the
answer though, if anyone out there can provide.

This isn't a direct answer to your question, but provides an example by way
of invoking the DDK compiler from within VStudio via a batch file
(DDKBUILD).
This is very *widely* used.
The setup instruction are long, but it's a lot easier than it looks.
