Years ago IÂ wrote a large qbasic program which is still very important to me.
It has been perfectly running in windows 98 and xp machines (my WP and OEM ones) for years.
(in vista I have a problem in the graphics windows - it simply does not work - period.)
It still runs perfectly in my old pentium 2 IBM thinkpad now with XP sp2.
I have installed it in a new desktop intel core 2 duo with the same windows XP sp2 that is running in the thinkpad, but although everything goes fine in the text windows, the graphic windows are not working okay
the graphics in those windows come out fine, but the text in those graphics window seems to be written in a crazy unknown language.
I compared the exe and bat properties that I used in both systems and they are precisely the same. Unless I am missing something, the windows XP sp2 parameters are also the same for both systems in terms of regional languages, etc.
Can a good soul please give me a hint on where the difference may be?
Thanks a lot
