"Nothing to be done" is not an error; it usually means that whatever executable file you wanted to generate is already there, and its timestamp says it's updated wrt the source files... Check if you set properly a target for your project.

If you just upgraded to Vista; make sure your Compiler is Vista Compatible,
NOTE, the Compiler shipped with Code::Blocks 8.02 IS NOT Vista Compatible!

I have no idea about fixing problem on Windows7. I used it just for a while but finally I don't think it fit to me at all.
I think c::b is quite easy to use. :lol:

I agree, for people who knows how to use an Compiler and Linker it is easy.
But, for the ones who do not know how to program it is not easy.

Humm, do you mean search for someone else's postings regarding the same questions. Well bud, I *AM following "the forum rules" and in doing so, I find you here saying the same thing, perhaps you should start postings answers and not just quoting regulations and/or admonishing those who are in need of YOUR help, comprende amigo?

Yes, find a thread where there are answers to this question, but it will be hard ... most of the threads are finished with post link mine.
If you find the answer, please write a faq entry in the wiki, so next time I can post a link, to it...
Try this steps:
1. test the compiler from the command line
2. if it works, goto settings -> compiler & debugger -> compiler -> toolchain
3. verify that the path is correct (I think you've to remove "bin", from it) and that all executables are spelled correctly.
p.s. cross posting is forbidden, too
p.p.s.
However, the MinGW64/bin directory has been added to the "%path%" (twice!), once by the installer and once by me.
In an attempt to resolve this issue, I have change the toolchain in the "Settings->Compiler/Debugger->Toolchain Executables" from the default "gcc" to "x86_64-w64-mingw32-gcc.exe". I did the same with the g++'s entries. But this did not change anything.
If I remember correctly, C::B is not using the %path% variable!
