mingw boost library not working

I am trying to make the boost library work with CMake but I get some weird error messages. I am using Stephan T. Lavavej`s mingw version which comes with boost-library.

My CMake file looks like the following :

   cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.6)
project(untitled)

set(Boost_INCLUDE_DIR C:/MinGW/include)
set(Boost_LIBRARY_DIR C:/MinGW/lib)
find_package(Boost COMPONENTS system filesystem REQUIRED)
include_directories(${Boost_INCLUDE_DIR})



set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "-Ofast -msse -msse2 -msse3  -march=znver1 -fno-use-linker-plugin -flto")
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -std=c++11 -static-libstdc++ ")

set(SOURCE_FILES main.cpp HexBoard.cpp HexBoard.h TreeNode.cpp TreeNode.h)
add_executable(untitled ${SOURCE_FILES})

and I get the following error messages:

> CMake Warning at C:/Program Files (x86)/JetBrains/CLion
> 2016.3.5/bin/cmake/share/cmake-3.6/Modules/FindBoost.cmake:743 (message):   Imported targets not available for Boost version 106300

How can I make the boost library work under mingw64 ?

Would appreciate any help

I am using the same setup, my make file looks like yours.

set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -std=c++14") 

set(Boost_INCLUDE_DIR c:/mingw/include/)
set(Boost_LIBRARY_DIR c:/mingw/lib/)
find_package(Boost COMPONENTS system filesystem REQUIRED)
include_directories(${Boost_INCLUDE_DIR})

I have also added the MINGW paths to my systems environment user variables. enter image description here
