CodeLite IDE

hello, i'm new and i've already met some "big" problem: before everything i've windows 7 64-bit and latest (i think 8) version of codelite, and sorry for my english, i'm italian.
Now the problem: the first thing is that i can't run any program, everytime i try it just appear the black screen with the "press any key to continue" message, even if i try with "hello world".
The second problem is with the debugger: everytime i try appears the message "Failed to locate gdb! at 'gdb' ".
i tried to change all the setting or find something on-line but it didn't help. Hope someone can solve my problems.
thanks.

did you build your project?
do you have a compiler + debugger installed?

i solved it, it was my fault, i didn't installed a missing library (hope is the correct translation); but now i've another problem: i'm able to build or run my project, but when i try to debug it start running (It makes me do all the steps of the program) but at the last closes almost instantly and returns nothing in the debug window. i've installed the debugger more times but it doesn't change.
Again hoping someone can help me
thanks again
