You are mixing WinAP with an ancient compiler.
It isn't going to behave nicely.

Either just use the <graphics.h> and <conio.h> facilities only or drop them for Win32.

Because of its age, you might also want to be running it on an emulator that handles the old 16-bit graphics stuff.


The age of your compiler really is an issue. You should get TDM-GCC or Microsoft's VS Community Edition and start using them instead.

If you get TDM's MinGW, there is a <graphics.h> replacement called WinBGIm.

There are gazillions of other options for graphics libraries. Google can help.


Sorry there isn't a simpler answer.
