Only in VGA 320*200 mode. Nothing else will work with this "ancient"
compiler. Except if you're willing to write your own BGI drivers, but
this will (to say at least) fairly challenging a task: BGI drivers are
16-bit drivers in a simulated 16-bit Windows 3.11 environment whereas
it will have to communicate with a "true" 32-bit environment (namely
your Windows environment).

If at all possible, I suggest you get a copy of the latest Visual C++
compilers from Microsoft (see Links section of this Yahoo group); as
far as I know they are free for private use.

Nico
