What can I do to solve this? I'm was looking for a solution for two weeks!

Thanks!

If after installing Platform SDK you still have this issue, go into "Source Files\platformWin32\platformWin32.h" and change the definition of _WIN32_WINNT from 0x0400 to 0x0501 (to target WinXP and above).

There seems to be some code that specifically deals with Windows menus in Win2K and above, and that code conflicts with the default target of WinNT. I'm not sure why TGB's source ships with WinNT as the default target, as that seems very outdated in the WinXP/Win7 era.

As a side note, I've been able to successfully compile targeting Win2K (0x0500), but I haven't tested the results on a Win2K machine. I don't really have a need or desire to target a release for Win2K though.
