    Trouble with MinGW gcc?

    Hi I just started using MinGW gcc because I want to start getting seriously in to programming and found out I'm going to need to get to know the command prompt. I set every thing like my friend said he's been using it but it didn't work.
    I typed into the command prompt:
    gcc first.c -o first
    It said
    no such file or directory
    no input files
    I do have the variable set up so that not the problem.
    I'm on vista please help!!!

    It is not how your friend says. Here, try this:
    Code:
    gcc -o first.exe first.c
    Next time, a search on google will solve your doubt.
