newbie attempting first compile and getting massive errors

Hi all,
I am a new member here but may be here a lot soon because I plan on trying to learn Qt over the next few months.

So I am on windows xp i installed MinGW and Qt 4.3.3
I'm attempting to compile the first tutorial hello world program just to learn how to compile and im getting many many errors.
**attached is a screenshot of the end of my long list of compile errors**

I'm using the Qt Command Prompt to compile
i changed it to the directory of my .cpp file
typed "qmake -project"
and then "qmake hello.pro"
and then "make"

the programs code is the basic hello world example from the book

i have visual studio 2005 installed, could this be causing the problem?
is there something i can do to make sure my MinGW and Qt were installed correctly?

many thanks,

Looks like template error. Paste your code.

I always could be wrong.

ok i figured it out with the help of some old threads on this forum

at the command prompt set to directory C:\Qt\4.3.3\

i entered:
"set QMAKESPEC=win32-msvc2005"

and now when i run the make file instead of just typing "make" i put in "make release" and it works
