The exact error message in Geany and the console output(start Geany
with -d in a terminal) would be very helpful. And please post the path
settings of the project(base path and run cmd or better the project
file).

Same as above, run Geany with the "-d" command line option. On Windows,
this will open a console window with some debug messages which might
provide better error reporting.
Did you set up the path to your compiler correctly? This can be a bit
tricky on Windows when the compiler binary is not in the %PATH%
variable. Also take care of quoting of the path. On my Windows test
system I have something like c:\mingw\bin\gcc -Wall -c "%f"
in the preferences (Build->Set Includes And Arguments->Compile). If you
have some spaces in the path to the compiler binary you should quote
the whole path but the better way is to avoid this if possible ;-)

Enrico
