Hi!

Here's my problem:
-> _ALL_ programs (exemples, demo, ...) compiled with Microsoft Visual
C++ stop with and error saying that they can't select SAFE_MODE.

I'm using this:
-> Allegro 3.9.32 WIP
-> MSVC 6.0
-> DirectX 7.0a (DLL, LIBs, Headers, ...)

It compiles well, without errors or warnings.
I've done this to install it:
-> vcvars32.bat
-> fixmsvc.bat
-> make
-> make install

I've started by compiling Allegro 3.9.32 with MSVC, but there where
errors because I had old DirectX LIBs and Headers. So, I downloaded the
DirectX SDK with the libs and headers. I copied the libs in
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Lib
and the header files in
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Include

I also installed the run time DLL for DirectX 7.0a.
Then, I did "make distclean" and I compiled Allegro again:
-> vcvars32.bat
-> fixmsvc.bat
-> make
-> make install

No errors, no warnings. Then, I executed _every_ ".exe" created by
"make" and none worked (exept the 2 GDI programs: dibgrab and dibhello
since they don't use "set_gfx_mode()").

Does anybody knows how to solve this problem ?

 Totaly unrelated!
 Don't read if you like Microsoft!

Oh no! I use Microsoft products!!! Awfull!!!
Oh no! a Hotmail e-mail!!! Awfull!!!

But did you know that Hotmail, which is run by Microsoft, uses an
Apache server that is running under Unix !!! They are so stupid! The
Microsoft team really knows that they are producing crap... Crapy web
servers, Crapy OS, Crapy ....

If you don't trust me, check the header that hotmail sends back to your
browser on the Delorie web site at:
