Hi - I am having troubles with a program in windows game programming for dummies. It compiles and links fine, no error, but as soon as I run it, windows tells me that it has "performed an illegal operation and will be shut down". The program is chapter four, program 1, or prog4_1.cpp on the disk. It is for setting up a basic windows program. I am using visual c++ 6.0 Any help would be greatly appreciated! - Daniel http://sw.mtx.net/daniel/
