I've tried a few. Bloodshed I used more recently but it's buggy and frustrating. The newer Borland ones have too much going on. What do you prefer?
I just want to be able to write C code, compile it and run it. Nothing complicated.

I used to use Dev C++ but now I use Code Blocks. It's as easy to use but better. Free too!

What's so wrong with Dev-C++? I've been using it for a few weeks now and I like it even though every opinion I read about it is negative. It's better than Visual C++ 6.0 in the sense that it doesn't crash with Windows 7. The only thing I've noticed is random error messages every now and then, but I just click OK and nothing bad happens.

I started off with TC-700. When I started developing for windows I have been using Visual Studio 6 (VC++ 6). Works like a charm everytime.

Visual studio, can compile c++ and c code, just by renaming your file to .c/.cpp. Also is the most feature rich, just a shame its abit slow and bloated. Express version is free
