Start of leraning + more on the Visual problem

I have started my lecture on the Windows API. Unfortunately I still cannot fix the problem with Visual C++ and I don't really have any way of 'fighting' it - I have to wait hoping to receive help from forums where I posted the problem. I can do exercises on another computer where the software works, however I probably won't be able to do the whole project there and even if, I'd rather do it on my own computer. If I don't get MS Visual working by the time I will start to write the actual program, I might choose to use an alternative program - it will be less easy on me since I got to know Visual  before, but it might be the best solution

For now I will just keep on going through the tutorial.
