Anyone know how to get Turbo C 2.01 to work in XP?

I want to use graphics.h and Turbo C seems to be the only compiler that will work with it. I downloaded the free borland compiler but it gives errors when I try to compile something with graphics.h. Anyway Turbo C will start but the keyboard seems to be disabled (ie I cannot type or move the cursor) I've tried different compatibility modes but none of them seem to work. Does Turbo C even work in XP?
 
I wouldn't even bother trying. Any reason you can't just use another compiler? Do you have VC++? If you let us know what you're trying to accomplish, I'm certain we can tell you an alternative means of implementing it using the win32 api, OpenGL, DirectX, etc.
 
Thanks for the reply. Right now Im using Dev-C++ with mingw32. What I want to do is create a Dos application that will produce a graph of a fuction. I was going to use allegro, but from what I understand you have to distribute some kind of .dll with the program or it wont work, and I dont want to do that.
