Help finding a decent IDE

Hey everyone,

New here, but not to C++. Just got a new laptop (kinda, it's a surface pro 3) and I've tried using Dev-C++, Code::Blocks, Netbeans 2.0 and Visual Studio 2013 and I've had various problems stopping me from being able to make a simple Hello World program in each one. I don't see what the problem is and I know for certain that there's nothing wrong with my code, the IDEs just keep throwing error messages at me or the compiler does.

Anyway, does anyone know of a good, easy to use compiler I can use for making simple little C++ programs on? Other than Eclipse.

Thanks all

EDIT: Visual Studio does work

Codeblocks, neatbeans, Visual studio all of those should work just fine, What kind of error message did you get? For example, if you get codeblocks, you automatically get a finished hello world program once you create a project, did that not compile?
It refused to compile
