in reply to Install CPAN BerkeleyDB module on Windows 7 (64 bit)

What does the "Microsoft Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 4" have to do with " dmake and MinGW" ?

You will have to install dmake and the MinGW C compiler, for example by downloading Strawberry Perl or installing them via ppm (which seems to have failed already in your case). Installing the Windows SDK won't help in that case.

    From what I understand, there is no MinGW C compiler for 64 bit Windows (at least on ActiveState PPM), which is why I downloaded the SDK. The compiler that came with the SDK seems to be fine.
