  Because Dev-C++ is an IDE for MinGW. AFAIK, the MS SDK works best with Visual C++.

  Dev-C++ is not intended as a general "Programmers Editor", so expecting it to work with every free compiler is not reasonable. It is designed to work with MingW/gcc...
  
  Some time ago, I was successful using JGNAT with the SDK C++ compiler. For C# and VB.net, the SharpDevelop IDE is quite good.
