Yes I tried out a new project file it built fine with the shipped one
and I found out what the problem was.
The System property in the Linker settings was wrong it was set to
/SUBSYSTEM:Windows instead of Console and the additional dependencies
i.e. all the lib files weren't linked.
Thanks for the help
