Updated windows build using the new Chemisist source. Tuned for Intel Sandy and Ivy Bridge but compatible with other architecture.

I'm seeing lower PPS than my v2 builds but I think that weaving will be better overall.

FYI I ran this overnight, it had the same bug as some of my builds where it dropped off the blockchain and never recovered. Woke up this morning to find current block was way behind.

Yes, I have had this problem with several of your builds and the generic build based on Cheimisists changes (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=253662.msg2716037#msg2716037) as well, but not the release 5 build. The strange thing is that the problem doesn't occur right away, I have observed it getting stuck on the same block after working flawlessly for 7 hours. I don't end up with any orphans though, I only observe that it's working on the same (old) block for a very long time.
