I can't find the file "SDL.dll", and it worked after i installed it, but then i made a new project, and now i get that error. Why does it need that dll now, when it didn't need it before.

You cannot run a SDL application without having the SDL.dll library either in the exe directory or in your windows\system directory. The previous project might already have the relevant DLL in the same directory as the project that you were running (or did not use SDL).
You should be able to find SDL.dll wihtout much problem on the internet (and as far as I can remember the dlls are included in the JEDI-SDL downloads)

You always need the SDL libraries either in the same path of the application or in the system path. I bundled the latest SDL and SDL friend libraries here: https://github.com/freezedev/elysion...nLibraries.zip
Edit: I was a bit too slow. cairnswm beat me to it.
