I am using notepad++ with MINGW. I want to switch from SDL to SFML on but I it won't run. Does anyone know how to make it work?

You have to be more specific than "it won't run" if you really expect help for your problem.

Did you already take a look at the tutorials?

I get a system error about "libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll is missing"

And you really don't get this error when compiling SDL or other projects? This doesn't look like an SFML-specific issue at all.

Add the -static-libgcc linker option, or copy the DLL from your mingw/bin directory to the same directory as your executable.
