I can't compile?!

Hi,

I've decided to learn C++, so I've download Visual c++
A few days ago, I've tried some basic things from a tutorial and it worked fine, but now, now I want to start learning it, I'm getting errors at compiling.

If I ctrl + f7 (compile), I'm getting a windows "not working" error. The output gives this:

1>------ Build started: Project: test, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------
1>Compiling...
1>test.cpp
1>d:\program files\microsoft visual studio 9.0\vc\include\stdio.h(237) : fatal error C1001: An internal error has occurred in the compiler.
1>(compiler file 'msc1.cpp', line 1411)
1> To work around this problem, try simplifying or changing the program near the locations listed above.

1>test - 1 error(s), 0 warning(s)
========== Build: 0 succeeded, 1 failed, 0 up-to-date, 0 skipped ==========

What's wrong here?

this is compiler's internal error and i have seen this error coming a couple of times..

just do a rebuild all and it should work fine.. if still its not working.. post your basic code.

and to compile you just have to F7.
to debug F5
to execute ctrl + F5.

Hey,

After a couple reboots, it seems the problem is solved. Thanks anyway :)
