I'm having the same problem. Below is a similar code fragment to what
I was using. On my system it fills the screen and then scrolls.
Compiled with another compiler it works fine. If this still works,
let me know and I'll send the actual program in email.



#include <conio.h>
#include <stdio.h>

int x,y;

main(){
  for(x=0;x<256;x++){
    for(y=0;y<256;y++){
      gotoxy(1,1);
      printf("%d %d",x,y);
     /* in my program I did some math here */
    }
  }
}
