I've downloaded the GNU C++ compiler for 386/486 DOS machines, set
it up, and everything seems to be working properly but the graphics.

No graphics at all. After I try to initialize graphics mode, the
text screen remains, only the palette is screwed up. I didn't do
anything obviously stupid, all the graphics settings are set in
correspondence with my hardware (I tried both VGA and ATI VGA
drivers), yet...

Any suggestions on the reason of this SPOOKY behavior?



Thanks in advance...
