Right now i'm learning win32 on dev-c++ and it's hard without a visual developing environment like vc6 or vb5. Is there a difference when programming for xp or vista?

Microsoft offers a very powerful .NET Framework for Windows XP and beyond. Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Express edition for C++ or for C# are powerful development environments (Express editions are downloaded for free). The C++ version encourages you to write "safe" code. That means you cannot use pointers. However, you can write unsafe code and use pointers in this language.
The framework automatically cleans up resources/memory when you do not explicitly use pointers.
Microsoft has been very successful in offering a very powerful set of framework features. I recommend you go on to learn what Microsoft .NET Framework has to offer developers. C# is a successful threat to Java.

why is it difficult wthout vc6 or vb5? there are some free IDEs available.
there's some difference between XP and vista. Vista's security model is very strict - if you're not an elevated user (administrator), you're not allowed to store files in some directories, or create registry entries. Also, the firewall can make problems if you use the internet. XP is not that strict.
but in most cases a program will run fine on vista if it was written for XP.

you are able to not study a guy to a woman. each is diverse. yet a guy, and a woman, supplement one yet another. In different words, one guy and one lady (mutually) is one unit. they seem to be a complementary pair.
