To edit the directories that VC is using to find compiler, go to the
"tools" menu
"options" menu item
"directories" tab
in "show includes for" select "executables"

then look in the list of directories shown.  The first few directories shown should be for the VC files.  cl.exe should be in one of these.  however, if you have a directory before this that also contains cl.exe, it will find that cl.exe instead.
