There is no error because of an wrong version, windows.h can not be found (as the compiler said)...
So there must be something wrong with your compiler's path settings...
Where is your windows.h stored ???
It has to be in the compilers default include directory !!!

Well, you get further... ;)
Did you do a search for the D3dx8core.h and d3dx8tex.h file on your system ???
They are files from the directx sdk...
