BGI Error: Graphics not initialized (use 'initgraph');

help!

why is it when i compile my program and run it stand alone (not on a TC directory) it gets an error:

BGI Error: Graphics not initialized (use 'initgraph');

please help!

You have to setup a graphics mode before you can to drawing operations. Use the function initgraph() to do that.
I'm no expert on BGI graphics though.

i got no prob with the code... it runs perfectly.. but the compiled EXE file when i run it stand alone it returns that error. but on TC it runs with no hassle! please help..

Maybe it's because it can't find the *.bgi files such as egavga.bgi.

the file variable to the egavga.bgi and change it to where the ega.. file is in ur comp....that will fix everything....hopefully
