Hey friends i am so excited to join this forum !!
its been 3 month since i`ve been learning turbo C !!
Now i`ve started lerning and making alot of programs !!
Well i am going through one error which is quite funny !! i hope someone of you can help me out in it !!
Well when i use turbo c and then exit from it to return to windows the "Desktop" dose`n appears and hence a black screen comes !! i`ve tried different things but it ain`t quite worked out right !
One thing for certain is that windows is working as once i left behind my music so when i exit from C the music was working also the mouse click sound is coming out just that i can`t see anything !! so i always have to restart my Pc to do anything else !! That has become more irritating and harder to work fluently on C
Please Some one help me out of this trouble !!
Thanks in advance !!!

not likely to be your compiler but the program you wrote.
Don't PM me with questions -- you might get a nasty PM in response. If you have a question then post it in one of the forums.
i don`t think its the program !! the reason is that if i return without running the program it still shows the same blank screen !!
its simply that once i entered the turbo C IDE i can`t find my desktop view with out restarting the PC !!
it will return to the desktop but will always show the blank screen !!

which version of Turbo C are you using? and which version of MS-Windows? It sounds like the compiler may have changed your window to full-screen command prompt. Did you try just pressing the <Esc> key ?

I downloaded TC3 and tried it out (ahh .. the not so good memories) and I get the "black screen" thing happening as well. For me I have to wait 10 to 15 seconds when switching from TC to any of my other running Windows applications. I get a delay of this order even when taking the DOS shell option from the File menu in TC.
Besides that it does some "funky" things to the fonts in DOS shell - switches into CGA/EGA mode - even a half blind sucker like me can read the screen from 10 feet away!
Write a little program that prints the size of your int type and if that ain't enough reason to drop TC and run to the hills ...
If you want to use an IDE, then I would advise you to upgrade your setup to something more modern and compatible with Windows XP. Personally, I use two setups:
1. Codeblocks (version 8.0.2) with the MinGW compiler. Here's the link to the download page:
http://www.codeblocks.org/downloads
2. the CDT plugin for the Eclipse framework (with MinGW).
I've also used Dev-C++ Bloodshed in the past - it's not too bad, but I prefer the other setup options from above.

Damn! I did it again. I didn't realise the age of this thread. Sorry people.
It would be great if threads of a certain age could be locked so that numbskulls like me don't keep posting to them.
