ok
I've tried everything except VC++ but that thing doesnt alllow pointers gives some freaky memory exception if i even use a -> anywhere in the program and most other compilers dont seem to run on XP home or somthing
yes I know I shld switch to XP pro or better still get linux I cant however due to some reasons
( pro cause it costs too much to upgrade and linux cause I've got to be able to play cs and sh!t ;-) )

any way these work fine in win 2000 nt and on pro but somthing fraks it out in home any suggestions..?
thanx for any in advance
