I'm trying to use Allegro to draw some shapes for a school project. I got the error: Process returned -1073741819 (0xC0000005). This was the same error I got when I tried to draw bitmaps previously. I borrowed code that my teacher uses for a demo to see if it was just my code that was the problem. I am still getting the error. From my research, 0xC0000005 seems to be an access violation error. I believe that it is a problem with my computer, what can I do to fix? Thank you.
Attached below is the code from my teacher that I am using. Other Allegro functions that do not require drawing shapes, such as creating a pop-up or drawing a single pixel work.
