First thanks for response on how to get the openAL dll file

Appears it loaded that fine but when I try to compile blob Monster from the samples directory I get error below .

Any Ideas ?? I hopefully am not being a pain

I have 2013 express installed , does the issue have something to do with the 'vc2010' above ??

Again any help would be appreciated. I hate being a clueless newb

Got it in one. Microsoft tools suck, just like their OS. They cannot even cleanly convert a vs2010 project file to a new edition without problems.

Install TDM-MinGW as Monkey always uses that for it's default for a desktop target.
