Sorry, I've been an ass.
Should I download the mingw installer? I have vista, and the webpage I got it from said mingw is unstable on vista.
I don't know how to use the openGL library. Do I need to download it? How do I get it to work with my program? I know how to code it into my program somewhat (#include<iostream.h> for example) but not how to get it to find that header and work with my program. I did try MVSE, but it won't install on my machine. They won't help me at the forums for that compiler, that is the one I prefer because it is the only one that runs the language I like (a microsoft language, VB.net, I'm just comfortable with it and the hassle required to get libraries working (something I don't know how to do) makes me lean more to that than any other language)). They were helping for a while but I got busy and stopped posting for about 4 days, then no matter how many bumps I make no one will even reply! Its as if they see my name as the last reply and assume I got my problems fixed!
The problem is that when I try and run a hello world! Program, I get a message box saying that the debugger executable is not set and I need to set it by going into some menu tab and find the programs tab then change something. I went there, and couldn't find a programs tab. That is the main problem, how do I set the debugger executable? I run windows vista, and I downloaded and installed the non MingW executable installer.
