Make sure you have the "i686-w64-mingw32" folders selected for 32-bit compilation.
The "x86_64-w64-mingw32" folders are for 64-bit compilation

Test Program:
	#include <SDL.h>
	#include <stdio.h>

	int main(int argc, char *argv[]){
		
		
		return 0;
	}


You should be able to compile this.
This will allow you to ensure your linker/compiler settings are correct and that everything is where it should be.
