So I did and now I receive a different set of error messages:

d:\cygwin\home\Administrator\c-programme>gcc -I/cygwin/usr/include test.cpp -o 
test
gcc -I/cygwin/usr/include test.cpp -o test

I do not undertsnad what you mean. I installed Cygwin into d:\cygwin.

> Dont know what the hell that means, can you post your source code?

The source code is something like

#include <stdio.h>

main()
{
  printf("Hello world\n");
  return 0;
}

(The problem is that I hav no infrastructure on Windows so I change to Linux 
to answer my mails and then change back to Windows.)
