Hello, I have been trying a hello world program written using Windows code, not C++ (printf("hello world") and I tried it on my computer with Windows XP. It didn't work (not surprised, XP has a shitload of problems). It does work on my other computer that has Windows 98 (Probably because XP is NTFS, not FAT32?) Heres my error: --------------------Configuration: win32_2 - Win32 Debug-------------------- Compiling... win32_2.cpp Command line error D2027 : cannot execute 'c1xx' Error executing cl.exe. win32_2.exe - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s) Heres the code: #define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN #include <windows.h> int WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInstance, HINSTANCE hPrevInstance, LPSTR lpCmdLine, int nShowCmd) { MessageBox(NULL, "\tHello, World!", "My First Windows Application", NULL); return 0; } If anyone can give me any help or direction in what to do, it will be greatly appreciated.

Try creating a new project from scratch and move your source files in it.
---visit #directxdev on afternet <- not just for directx, despite the name
IndirectX - That didnt work

I had no problems compiling/running with VC++ .NET and VC++ 6.0 in WinXP.

Have you tried reinstalling your VC UNDER XP?
"after many years of singularity, i'm still searching on the event horizon"
When you installed MSVC did you turn off your Norton Antivirus. Sometimes you have to turnoff it off while installing Micro$oft products.
