What compiler/version are you using to build it? What configuration? What error messages? etc., etc.). Unless you have some overwhelming reason for building gcc on Vista, I simply would not bother. Download a pre-built binary and use that. If you are looking for a native gcc, use . If you are looking for a cross-platform gcc of some sort, there are pre-built binaries for most targets - ask google, or give more information when asking here.
