cocos2d-x

I have tried to start programing with Cocos2dx but I have no idea where to start and the tutorials are no very not very helpful.

What I am looking for is some tutorials/guides on how to begin using cocos2dx for the total beginner.

Things like how to setup a project and run it and how to do simple things like draw graphics on the screen, play sounds and get input.

I am running on windows 7 and have been told by the Cocos2dx wiki that this may cause problems so if anyone has a solution to this that would also be helpful.
