I have been using my HP laptop for two years, and never re-installed the system once, so lots of junk under C:\ and sometimes its process speed just drives my crazy. I figured since everything in my life is re-start freshly, why not re-install Win7?
1. MSDN offers free series key to students, so it's easy to get Win7 professional. (check)
2. C:\ is formatted while other disks are still the same. (check)
3. A bunch of software and applications I need to download and install again after re-installing the system.(check)
4. I used Visual Studio 2008 under my old system, and this time I updated to Visual Studio 2010 ultimate. (check)
5. Configure OpenCV with VS2010 (troubles start from here)
6. First of all, I followed an instruction of how to configure OpenCV with VS2008(http://www.opencv.org.cn/index.php/VC_2008_Express%E4%B8%8B%E5%AE%89%E8%A3%85OpenCV2.3.1), however, VS2010 does not have C++ directories under tool/options/C++ which means for every project i build in the future, I will need to manually set up the directories again and again. I searched online, this is one of the few changes VS 2010 made compared with VS2008. There are some instructions out there about how to fix it, but i guess i'm very low patient, and just couldn't care.
7. Then I switched to another instruction for VS2010(http://www.opencv.org.cn/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=11157). After following all the steps in the instruction, luckily, i was able to build my project under VS2010. But! But! but error bumped out when I ran the project, "cxcore210d.dll is missing from the computer,..."!!! I googled this error and tried all the methods to fix it, but nothing works. Someone had this problem before mentioned that OpenCV still works better with VS2008.
8. So, after all these troubles, I removed VS2010 from my computer, and right now, I'm installing VS2008. Hope I can get this done this morning, good luck to me!
