title: How to get minGW to find the path to compile and link correctly
body: <p>I am currently using Sams Teach yourself C++ in 24 Hours for my computer science class that starts in about a week and it told me to download minGW and then change the path variable to ;C: \MinGW\bin, which I did, but then when I attempted to compile and link the "program" it told me to create, it says no such file or directory. Does anyone know why it is saying this or how it can be fixed? I even put the file which is named motto.cpp into the bin file and it is still saying that it cannot be found.</p>
