If you need to compile an application using MinGW, how about use boot to Ubuntu LiveCD, install MinGW (and other dependecy) and compile it from Ubuntu LiveCD ?
If the problem is specific to Bitman USB Antminer, i recommend you to ask the question on Mining support
I thank you for the response friend. I was able to get cgminer installed in Win 10 tonight. It was my blunderous u know what causing the issue. I am going to hook up the miner in the morning and get it running via the terminal. Once I see what I am doing I am moving back over to my home Linux OS. Again I have a way to go, and I will do this in time.
Best to you!
