    For graphics that are not DOS, consult Sunlights DirectX tutorials. They should be listed in the FAQ. There are many advantages of windows programming. Would you care to give a frame of reference ? Like how does Windows programming compare to DOS programming ? Because depending on what you compare it to, it has different (dis)advantages. Compared to a chocolate cake, it's quite expensive and less tasty

    When in doubt, read the FAQ.
    Then ask a smart question.

    You might not need DirectX if you are going to do basic graphics. If you just want to put a few pictures on the screen, then avoid directX and just use the windows GDI. Either way, you can search for them both on ANY search engine.. and i'm sure there's quite a few discussions already going on elsewhere in this forum.

    geez. how many times per week does this appear?! No offence mate, but have a look through the threads on the forum, and/or search for this kind of thing on the web.. there are already hundreds of posts/papers and god-knows-what else out there.

    Good luck
