i'll be so happy to see my program running on the new 2200 MHZ PC but unfortunately it looks like it just isn't going to happen. the guy who was helping me doesn't know much so he can't help me anymore and after several hours of trying i just cannot even get cout or printf to put any text in the window that appears. i guess i'll have to stick with DOS, i'll just implement your normals system into that.
