Well, you could increase your stack size.  To do this in Turbo C++
version 3.0 for DOS (I'll bet it's the same, though, for all versions
of Turbo C), you have to set the global variable _stklen, declared in 
DOS.H, to a new value.  For instance,

/*-----------------------------------*/
#include <stdio.h>
#include <dos.h>


extern unsigned _stklen = 543210U;

int main(void)
{
   printf("The stack size is %u\n", _stklen);
   return 0;
}
/*-----------------------------------*/

That should do it.  If you increase your stack to the size I used
above, and you still overflows, then you may want to check your code
for some infinite loops or other things of that nature.
