I recommend an article such as http://osix.net/modules/article/?id=670 BTW: MinGW provides its own header for windows.h. Make sure your include paths are "friendly" to MinGW and just link in whichever windows SDK libs you want to use. Depending on what libs/headers you're using you may need to #define a few things (check what the SDK headers are asking for).
