Easier way to Program Windows App in C++?

[MaStErPfu]

I'm wondering what is the easiest way to make dialogs and forms in C++. I am really getting bored of programming in Console and the only chance I can make a Windows App is in VB, but I wanna try the power of C++. Sure I have heard of MFC, OWL so-and-so, and I have C++ to make Resource philes, but everytime I make a Dialog, the whole C++ crashes... I can edit dialogs and stuff, but when C++ loads Dialog Editor it crashes. Is there any other programs out there that can do the same thing, or a free compiler that can do the same thing. I have Borland C++ 5.0. Any suggestions would be nice, please help?! :(

The easiest way is probably using C++Builder :)

But that's a tad pointless because it's much more fun with the API :p
