It is interesting that you say you can not run msc6.0 under a dos window
because you keep running out of heap space.  The problem is not with windows.
The problem is not with msc6.0 (though I would suggest zortech C++) the 
problem is with nmake.  NMAKE IS TOO BIG!
I have been compiling code from within windows since I have had windows (about
May 1990) and have had the same problems until I trashed nmake and went back
to Borlands make (which I happen to like better).
Sometime soon, I hope to finish Builder's progression over to a full make
environment, and then your troubles will be solved (probably).  Until then I
would suggest you use a smaller make program or get Zortech's compiler which
will use XMS. :-)

ciao
