title: Problems with setting up opengl and visual studio 2010
body: <p>I am a beginner for opengl and visual studio. I am using VS2010 and I met several problems when setting up opengl. I downloaded the NVDIA SDK so I have the gl.h and other header files under include directory. I downloaded glut and put glut32.dll in the same directory as my source file. It does not work if I put glut32.dll under system32. I can see the file using explorer but it is not visible for other applications including VS2010. I also put the lib files to the right windows SDK folder and added the linkers glut32.lib glu32.lib opengl32.lib to my project. I found this code online

  <p>it does not give me anything but a write window(even I uncommented some functions in the end)</p>
  
  <p>Also there is a lot of errors(but can be compiled and run)</p>
  
  <p>Please help. Thank you!</p>
