Bloodshed Dev Stops Compiling

Hi,

A while ago I bought a book about programming C++ and downloaded the Bloodshed Dev-C++ program to compile the programs out of it. Everything worked fine until recently, when I installed MS Visual Studio Express. Now whenever I try to compile anything in Bloodshed it gives me the following errors:

[Linker error] undefined reference to `__cpu_features_init'
ld returned 1 exit status

I know there's nothing wrong with the code because it worked before. So anyone know what the problem is here? BTW I have tried re-installing Bloodshed, it didn't make any difference.

Cheers.

I'm no expert on the subject, but perhaps your PATH variable is having a conflict?

I too installed Dev-C++ first (first an older version, and then the newest beta version shown in my signature), and later installed Visual Express and can use either one now with no problems. Using AMD 64 and win xp pro

are you trying to use your project files (.dev) files in MSVS?

That might give you that error.

Nope, just trying to compile the same cpp files I compiled before I installed VS.
