in the debugger or the IDE?
I added device=%SystemRoot%\system32\ansi.sys in config.nt but it didnt
help. I thought this would have worked.
From the cmd prompt "mem /C" does not show ansi.sys loaded, nor even
himem
which was already in config.nt before I added the ansi.sys
I only want to run this program on win32 from the debugger ie: hitting F5.
It is much easier to debug in VC7.1 then using gdb. ie: I am not running
the .exe under emulation mode. It only runs on my PCs (Xp or Win2k) when
I am debugging.
Repeat this mantra "XP is not DOS".
Win32 does not support DOS device drivers. You can use ANSI.SYS for 16-bit
code running under command.com, you can't use it for win32 code.
..TIA..
