Hi Amos, You can get VS2010 Express for free at here http://www.microsoft.com/express/Downloads/#2010-Visual-CPP Win SDK are free as well http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/bb980924 but it's not required to build. You get get other VC Express version free as well. There's some change in C runtime since VS2005 which mess things up, including some redefine of EAGAIN EWOULDBLOCK etc etc. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8ef0s5kh(v=vs.80).aspx http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms737828(v=vs.85).aspx I'm just generally frustrated about not having something that at least build, I can probably risk a couple of night to try to get things start. Cheers.
