Answer 1

1. Install visual studio Express C++.
2. Install the Windows SDK for windows 7.
3. After recreating a new project for that copy+pasted code, point the project properties to the windows sdk, as well as the direct X sdk. This includes both include folders, and lib folders. If you don't know how to do that, Go check out the "how do i" videos on msdn.com for visual studio 2010.
