You will get better results easier ifyou use some port of gcc compiler for Windows. Try mingw32 or cygwin. Visual Studio is good compiler, but it is not the same as gcc and doesn't have identical libraries, so you will need to rewrite some parts of your source code.

The errors you get are about missing functions.
