    two dev-c++ problems

    I just reinstalled dev 4 with allegro, but it's a different version than I was using before.

    First, is there any way to fix the relative filenames when I'm working on a project in a directory (like c:\dev-cpp\eastkart) so I don't have to make all my filenames easkart\whatever.dat?

    Second, I'm getting a memory access error at seemingly random times that crashes the whole deal. I used the official allegro installation instructions, and I haven't messed with anything else, so I'm really baffled. I attached a screen of the error:

    Do you really mean version 4?

    Or the 4.9x versions which are the beta's for 5.0 ?

    Was it a clean install, or some reinstall over some previous version?

    It's a clean install. I got dev from this page, it just says 4.

    Well that's the good version.

    Have you checked for latest updates?

    > when I'm working on a project in a directory (like c:\dev-cpp\eastkart)
    I would suggest you put all your own work in a completely separate directory to the compiler install directory. Who knows what random change you may have made by mistake.

    Say
    c:\code
    c:\projects
    etc
