The MSVC getting started guide takes you from downloading the library to setting up your first project. It even gives you links to the download page.

I don't understand where any confusion would be coming from. Is there a particular point you don't understand?

"In Library files, add SFML-x.y\lib\vc2005"
that file path doesn't exist, i did a normal install of VS 2005.
so i just set it to the lib file witch seemed to work.
but when i tried to compile some code i get:
"LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'SFML_DYNAMIC.obj'"
witch i have no clue y its teling me that i falled everything else in the tut to the letter

This is the path that you extracted from the SFML archive... x.y refers to the version that you downloaded, for example 1.5.

You've put SFML_DYNAMIC in the wrong option. There is a screenshot in the tutorial to help you... ;)
