cannot find `ld'

[David]

OS: Win7
Version: 4.9.9.2

I have been scouring the internet and forums for about an hour and continually
get the same errors. I have checked my compiler directories and its still C
:\Dev-Cpp\Bin. It was working earlier today i just restarted my computer and
now i cant find the problem with it.

Here is the compile log:
Compiler: Default compiler
Executing g++.exe...
g++.exe "C:\Dev-Cpp\prog\hello.cpp" -o "C:\Dev-Cpp\prog\hello.exe" -I"C:\Dev-
Cpp\lib\gcc\mingw32\3.4.2\include" -I"C:\Dev-Cpp\include\c++\3.4.2\backward"
-I"C:\Dev-Cpp\include\c++\3.4.2\mingw32" -I"C:\Dev-Cpp\include\c++\3.4.2" -I"C
:\Dev-Cpp\include" -L"C:\Dev-Cpp\lib" -ld
collect2: cannot find `ld'

Execution terminated

And it does it with all programs but here is a simple one:

#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    std::cout << "Hello\n";

    system("pause");
    return 0;
}

PLEASE READ BEFORE POSTING A QUESTION

The latest release of Dev-C++ (4.9.9.4) dates back to 2005.
Both Windows Vista and Windows-7 are newer than release 4.9.9.2.
Colin LaPlace abandoned Dev-C++ after this release.

Dev-C++ seems to work (with caveats) with Windows-XP.
Dev-C++ is known to have problems with Windows Vista.
I do not believe that Dev-C++ works with Windows-7.

regarding "Vista".
