error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol MPI_INIT referenced in function
===

I am trying to compile a software package called FDMNES for X-ray Absorption Spectra Modelling with MPI for the first time in Windows, using Visual Studio 2010 and a trial version of the Intel Composer XE 2011 SP1, ifort visual fortran compiler in conjunction with Intel Parrelel Studio 2011.  I have managed to get all the object files compiled using the 64-bit version of ifort, but when it comes dime to link the files I recieve the followed error:

    1>------ Build started: Project: Console2, Configuration: Release x64 ------

I've tried linking to the  64bit Intel MPI libraries, as well as MPICH2 64bit libraries by adding the command /L"C:\PathtoMPILibrary\" but to no avail.  I have also tried using this makefile, running with gmake from a mingw32 package:

    #Make file for the fdmnes package
    objects = main.obj clemf0.obj coabs.obj convolution.obj dirac.obj fdm.obj fprime.obj general.obj hubbard.obj lecture.obj mat.obj metric.obj minim.obj potential.obj scf.obj selec.obj spgroup.obj sphere.obj sub_util.obj tab_data.obj tddft.obj tensor.obj
    compiler = mpif90 -O3 -c
    fdmnes_mpi : $(objects)
    	mpif90 -o fdmnes_mpi $(objects)
    main.obj : main.f
        $(compiler) main.f 
    clemf0.obj : clemf0.f
        $(compiler) clemf0.f
    .....etc

But when I run gmake, I get the following error:

    Intel(R) Visual Fortran Intel(R) 64 Compiler XE for applications running on Intel(R) 64,

    ifort: error #10037: could not find 'link'

I've exhausted forums, and I need this to be compiled with MPI under 64bit windows. Any help would be very much appreciated! Thanks.
