4Why are you still living in the Turbo era? Switch on to some better compiler.
gcc and MSVC++ Professional Edition are better ones.
On windows use IDEs like DevCpp or Code::Blocks, both support MinGw port of gcc.
I'm afraid, but you can't reliable switch to full-screen text mode anymore.
Microsoft deprecated support for full-screen text mode in the graphic drivers. It's optional now and some drivers still support it, but most manufacturers don't bother implementing a deprecated feature.
The best thing you can do is to open a real GUI window and emulate the text-mode display. Obviously this will not work with DOS programs.
Edit: If you can't life without full-screen you can always install DOSBOX. It will execute Dos programs and can emulate fullscreen for you. However, your programs will run slower because DOSBOX is basically a emulator and has it's own performance overhead.
you can also use the new Express editions of Visual C++ 2008, it has an updated C++ compiler, which you can also use when trying to create C programs/apps. If you really wanna use Turbo compilers, you can set external tools on the Visual C++ 2008 Express, using the Turbo compilers as the external tools. That way you can compile your program with both MS C++ Compiler and your Turbo Compilers...
