I seem to be having a bit of hardware trouble...my HP DVD-ROM/CD writer is producing arrors when burning CD-RWs at even the slowest speeds when using memorex CD-RWs and the CD writing wizard that came with windows. so my question to you is this:Is this a problem with the brand of CD, or is there an underlying problem that I should be aware of?please help!Asphinx

I have just started programming in c++ and have a DOS game set up that would benefit greatly from some graphics/animations. unfortunately, I have absolutely no idea how to go about this, and to amke matters worse, have no idea as to how to add graphics in general. so my question to everyone else is:how do I add graphics to my dos application?if it helps I am using the Dev-Bloodshed compiler, and would be willing to switch.looking for help,Asphinx
