Painful but it Works Now
Finally got it to compile and run. The downloaded executable would not run in Windows 7 but did work well on my XP machine. After installing VS11 Beta and the WDK8 Preview the source would not compile until I did a large amount of re-configuring of the compile and project settings.

The utility is a handy novelty and does find all of my USB devices but the really valuable lessons learned here is the problems of developing for Windows 8 and using VS11. There is a large amount of missing and incorrect information and many basic mistakes made by Microsoft and I am not impressed at all. If they want me to devote effort to building Mosaic applications they are going to have to provide better development support than the other tablet OS platforms.
