Building an Android Source Code is some complex task. You have to first Initializing a Build Environment for that. And after Choosing a Branch for your requirement.
I suggest you to build android source code on Linux machine specially, ubuntu 10.04.
As Android Platform support officially on this.
Note: The source download is approximately 6GB in size. You will need 25GB free to complete a single build, and up to 90GB (or more) for a full set of builds.
You can find further instruction on this Initializing a Build Environment
Update:
Also Look at How to Compile ICS (Ubuntu) and How to Compile Android from Source Code
Develop an sdk in user mode, Use this command
limited access; suited for production
Also other Target (developing modes)
like “user” but with root access and debuggability; preferred for debugging
development configuration with additional debugging tools
