How are we supposed to know this? We even don't know what compiler you're using :( (we need to know this because it can be compiler specific, I guess you're using a Microsoft compiler, but I want to be 100% sure :))

BTW, You could just Google on it ...

Edit:: Being a noob isn't wrong, as long as you learn from your mistakes and you follow the forum rules, we've nothing against you :)

Please post the smallest version of your code that will produce those linker errors. Then we can see which libraries you are trying to use.
