My system configuration is Athlon X2 4000+,ASUS M2N-MX, 1GB DDR2 RAM,Onboard NVIDIA 6100 VGA,17" LCD from VEIWSONIC.On my system C++ and TC giving me only blank screen when running after installation but same copies of these programs working perfectly on my another system which is E7200+ASUSP5KPL-VM,2GB DDR2 RAM,XFX 8600GT and SAMSUNG 17" CRT.
What could be the problem? Please help.

The problem is that TC is obsolete. It will probably not run on your configuration. Even if you manage to run it on some other machine, I'll suggest you against it. Use open watcom c++ or Dev C++(Although it is no longer developed but it is miles ahead of TC). You can't do anything with TC like windows programming etc, only simple C and C++ programs can be written in TC. So don't use it.

You can try out Microsoft Visual Studio Express edition and Windows SDK (if required).
