I've used a handful of different compilers and my "out-of-the-box" experience has NEVER been very good! Getting that first "Hello World" (or other simple) program to compile has always been a pain! It's usually been a problem with the compiler being able to find the source file or the libraries, or me using the wrong command-line switches, or me not knowing where it put the exe file, etc.

Both of the compilers you've tried-out are very popular. Do do as Jaguar suggests and sombody can probably help. Getting that first program to run can be frustrating. After that, things get better.
