The problem is how to convert COFF r.res in r.res OMF.

do not know if there is a way that I found on the net did not help me.
It is a little hard not having someone with the same operating systema to help me.

But anyway Thanks, learned a few new things today.

resulting '.res' is not COFF, it's "windows resource file format". some linkers supports it directly, but i'm not sure about VS linker.

right, .res is not COFF,
when compiling in dmd.
dmd r.res test.d works
but
dmd -m64 r.res test.d of error in r.res

and that's it.

Does anyone managed to compile a one resource on 64 bit windows.

You probably compile resource to compiled resource format. If you compile it to coff, linker should accept it.
