Debugger and auto detect

[nxt234]

I bought a book about C++ and it came with a CD. The CD had CodeBlocks 8.0.2. I have a windows 7 laptop and when i was  starting the program i did everything the book told me and it say "Test - Debug" uses an invalid compiler [YOUR ANSWER IS ALREADY THERE. SEARCH THE FORUMS!]. Skipping...
Nothing to be done.

So i click debug> Start and it say that the debug couldn't run. So i went to Compiler and Debugger and went to ToolChain exe. Then i clicked auto detect and it say could not auto detect would you like to this compiler's default installation directory and i said yes and it didnt work. i need help.

Some suggestions :
- forget about 8.02
- install newer version of MinGw system (debugger and compiler) here : http://tdm-gcc.tdragon.net/
- download a more recent version, a nightly build version for example : http://forums.codeblocks.org/index.php/board,20.0.html

Thank you sooooo much now it works. The book doesn't tell you what you need to get it to work.
