My Contributions
I often use MinGW but rather than just typing your code up in notepad, I suggest downloading an IDE (Integrated Development Environment) - take a look at the following: (they're all free smile.gif)
Code::Blocks
Bloodshed Dev-C++ a little outdated, it has been discontinued, but still very widely used
CodeWarrior
Visual Studio Express

The benefits of an IDE include syntax highlighting, auto indentation, quick keyboard shortcuts to compile, project handlers, and more. Oh, and they come with a compiler which should automatically be set up and ready to use.

Hope this helps smile.gif
