Runtime Errors - WinXP, MinGW (not code::blocks)

[Lowest0ne]

Hi all,

I'm having some troubles getting SFML up and running with MinGW.  I'm very new to MinGW/Coding/makefiles/sfml, so any help is appreciated.

Here is enough info (I think) to at least point out a maybe.


I have all the needed .dlls in the folder, and I also get this crash when I run the exe not in msys.

I've tried just about every Win32 release (1.6 and 2.0) trying to get them to work.  I've noted that the 2.0 example programs (well, pong) don't work on my computer.  I thought I had 1.6 working, but now back to the drawing board.

I guess I'll try getting this working in VS and see if I can replicate it for MinGW?

Thanks.

What kind of crash? The usual "An application has stopped working" windows error message?
If that is the case try recompiling SFML. Helped when I got these kind of errors once.

Only a Visual Studio just-in-time-debug message.  I turned it off, but now I only get an error saying that it isn't turned on...

Perhaps I need to restart the computer.
