It works fine when everything is correctly detected, but if you need to do manual configuration it's pretty tricky to get a quick overview of things. The gui also somewhat guides you through problems.
It sounds like you used the zip, rather than the installer to 'install' cmake, if so it can get quite annoying in regards to not finding the cmake detection rules and stuff, since it will work, but tries to look for stuff in PATH, rather than the local directory... it seems anyway. Just remember that if you've manually moved libs and sdk's around, cmake will not be able to guess that, you may have to tell it where your new location is (as it does find some stuff from registry keys).
Not sure about VS Express, but since there's no MFC or anything like that, it may work.
