Please Post the exact error it gives.

I too use the Dev-Cpp for c++ some times but have no problem.

Try installing (extracting) it again.

I'd recommend u to use either the newer TC++4.5 compiler or the older dos based compiler .....

But those aren't free ,are they ?

Dev C++ uses some weird standard but is useful as vc++

I like TC asits based on AT&T standard (somewhat).
