I’m looking for a good, free C compiler for Windows. Where can I find it?

There are plenty. Borland C++ Builder, GCC (on Windows, often used in Cygwin), DJGPP, Visual C++ Express, and LCC-Win32.
I’ve used GCC (through Linux and Cygwin). I used DJGPP years ago (it was/is a fork of GCC, don’t know how close it has stayed) which worked very well. No experience with the rest, really.
Edit: and MingGW, which was already mentioned and may be your best bet if you don’t want Cygwin.
