Compiling issues with Intan RHD2000 toolbox in Matlab 2017a

I cannot get the following driver setup to execute and I also get an error:
>> driver = rhd2000.Driver()
Warning: Message from C preprocessor:

I omitted parts of the error. I am currently using MinGW for compiling. Oddly, this works flawlessly with Matlab 2015b with lcc-win32 compiler. I would like to solve this problem asap. Please help!

I had the same error and installed the Microsoft Visual Studio 2015 (Community) SDK -- make sure you select the option for C/C++/Matlab during installation (I forget which one it was, but it was not the default option). https://www.visualstudio.com/vs/older-downloads/

I'm having this exact same problem. I've installed the MinGW64 Compiler (C++) and Windows 10 SDK. Prior to running the lines that you run when you get that error, I first run:
>> mbuild -setup -client mbuild_com MBUILD_COM configured to use 'MinGW64 Compiler with Windows 10 SDK or later (C++)' for C++ language compilation.
Then I run this part:
>> mex -setup cpp MEX configured to use 'MinGW64 Compiler (C++)' for C++ language compilation. Warning: The MATLAB C and Fortran API has changed to support MATLAB variables with more than 2^32-1 elements. You will be required to update your code to utilize the new API. You can find more information about this at: https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/matlab_external/upgrading-mex-files-to-use-64-bit-api.html.
To choose a different C++ compiler, select one from the following: MinGW64 Compiler (C++) mex -setup:C:\Users\fahee\AppData\Roaming\MathWorks\MATLAB\R2018a\mex_C++_win64.xml C++ MinGW64 Compiler with Windows 10 SDK or later (C++) mex -setup:'C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2018a\bin\win64\mexopts\mingw64_g++_sdk10+.xml' C++ Renamed options file 'C:\Users\fahee\AppData\Roaming\MathWorks\MATLAB\R2018a\mex_C++_win64.xml' to 'C:\Users\fahee\AppData\Roaming\MathWorks\MATLAB\R2018a\mex_C++_win64_backup.xml'. MEX configured to use 'MinGW64 Compiler with Windows 10 SDK or later (C++)' for C++ language compilation. Warning: The MATLAB C and Fortran API has changed to support MATLAB variables with more than 2^32-1 elements. You will be required to update your code to utilize the new API. You can find more information about this at: https://www.mathworks.com/help/matlab/matlab_external/upgrading-mex-files-to-use-64-bit-api.html.
After that, I choose MinGW64 Compiler with Windows 10 SDK or later (C++). Then I run the line that you ran: >> driver = rhd2000.Driver();
I get the same error. Anyone have any ideas?

I followed all these steps and was still receiving an error- I was able to get past this by setting the C compiler to Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 (C):
mex -setup
and selecting Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 (C) as well as mex -setup cpp as detailed above.
