Well you might want to download the Allegro Game Programming Library from 
http://www.talula.demon.co.uk/allegro (the work in progress is actually the 
stable version of Allegro.....and don't forget to download the 
alldata3937.zip file for the demo game when you compile it) and read teh 
readme.mgw text file with notepad and print it out. It tells you how to 
install a compiler called MinGW:). I'd recommend following the "Setting up 
MinGW to Build Allegro" section and then the "Setting up Dev-C++ to build 
Allegro"......the Dev-C++ is an IDE that is very close to Visual C++ by 
Microsoft. If you decide to download this and install it reply cause there 
are a few files I left out in case you don't feel like wasting your time 
with this compiler. The file addresses I left out were:

fil316b.zip
DLG_WIN

I have the urls and will give them to you if you want to download them, but 
I will give them to you if you reply to this and say that you want them:).
