Unable to link Boost libs to vs2010 - c++

Question

I know this question has been asked a lot of times here. But after trying all the mentioned solutions I am still not able to Compile the Test Boost code.
I have followed the following Steps for installation :-
Unzip Boost into a new directory.
Start a 64-bit MSVC command prompt and change to the directory where Boost was unzipped.
Run: bootstrap
Run: b2 toolset=msvc-10.0 --build-type=complete --libdir=C:\Boost\lib\x64 architecture=x86 address-model=64 install
Add C:\Boost\include\boost-(version) to your include path in Microsoft.Cpp.Win32.user property sheets.
Add C:\Boost\lib\x64 to your libs path in Microsoft.Cpp.Win32.user property sheets.
Additionally, I have added the lib path in additional library directory.
I am trying to compile a standard code to test whether boost is working properly or not.
#include <iostream>
#include <boost/shared_ptr.hpp>
#include <boost/regex.hpp>
using namespace std;
struct Hello
{
Hello(){
cout << "Hello constructor" << endl;
}
~Hello(){
cout << "Hello destructor" << endl;
cin.get();
}
};
int main(int argc, char**argv)
{
//Boost regex, compiled library
boost::regex regex("^(Hello|Bye) Boost$");
boost::cmatch helloMatches;
boost::regex_search("Hello Boost", helloMatches, regex);
cout << "The word between () is: " << helloMatches[1] << endl;
//Boost shared pointer, header only library
boost::shared_ptr<Hello> sharedHello(new Hello);
return 0;
}
The linker error I am getting is:-

What am I missing here?
I am using VS2010 and windows 64bit.
Thanks

There were 2 issues which were giving the linker error:-
Additional linker dependencies absent at Properties->Linker->Input->AdditionalDependencies
Project was win32. Needed to convert it to x64 using configuration manager.
