I have bee trying to figure out why for ages now. But if i try to load a file from the disk (both for image and texture) and i just get an unhandled exception.
This is the code:
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>
#include <Windows.h>
int main()
{
sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(1024, 768), "SFML works!");
sf::Text text("Hello SFML");
sf::Texture texture;
texture.loadFromFile("dude.jpg");
while (window.isOpen())
{
sf::Event event;
while (window.pollEvent(event))
{
if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed)
window.close();
}
window.clear();
window.draw(text);
window.display();
}
TerminateProcess(GetCurrentProcess(), EXIT_SUCCESS);
}
After some searching I thought maybe recompiling was the answer, but it didn't change a thing =(.
Also i managed to create an image giving it a colour, height and width so it leads me to think that te file is just not being found.
Here is some other relevant stuff:

The image has to be in your project folder. Or, you can write the C: directory to the image like so:
Texture texture;
texture.loadFromFile("C:/Directory/To/Your/Image/image.jpg");
Which SFML package did you download? Are you sure that you don't have another version? Have you followed the tutorial?
TerminateProcess(GetCurrentProcess(), EXIT_SUCCESS);
