   DOSBox can really be a life-saver. Unfortunately even dosbox doesnt work properly in Win7..and graphics program doesn’t work. Do you know any way to run TC 3.0 graphics programs in Win7?

   DOSBOX works really nice, but there is a problem.
   I have an egg catching game, in the first screen the title”EGG GAME” is in calligraphy type of font and has font size of 7 in turbo c++.
   But when I do step 8 i.e., type the name egg.exe the font size is reduced to normal size and even the font type has changed to , i think times roman.Could U please tell me how to rectify it

   you can use this code

   if (errorcode != grOk) /* an error occurred */
   exit(1);

   int midx, midy,radius = 100;
