Strange Compiling Errors.

       I have restarted my mod from the TPT++ source, and after I set up everything according to wiki instructions, I went to compile, and I got the error "Powder-Release" uses an invalid compiler."

       I can compile from my USB drive where I used to store the mod, but I moved it to the desktop and now I get these errors. What should I do?

     Its the pre made file. It works on my usb drive but not from my pc itself. I can take the usb around and mod on other people's pcs if I want, but not when I put it on my actual HD.

    compiler is an executable, which has to be properly linked with system specs, so, compiler, once installed, is not portable

     Not true, I had at one point a chroot special mingw32 shell on a usb drive, so that no matter the actual usb path, it always appeared to mingw32 as the same path. I used to be crazy about portability of software, specifically keeping all traces on the usb drive, so I could run software at school without giving myself up. Compilers can be portable. Hell, I had portable eclipse at one point (but only a java compiler, this was before I got mingw32).
