That's debatable.

I doubt that. More likely is that you're expecting Borland conio functions to work with Microsoft libraries, and because the contents of conio.h vary wildly, it doesn't work. That's your problem for relying on compiler specific functions. You'll also get no sympathy as the FAQ for this forum tells you what the problem is and how to solve it using conio.h as an example.
