  There are two basic possibilities:

1.  There may be a conflict between your video driver and something
that Turbo C++ wants to start up when you boot.  Try changing to
standard VGA; if that works, look at everything that starts up in
Windows ("run=" and "load=" lines in win.ini/system.ini, as well as
your Startup group/folder; and, if you're running Win32[*], in the
Registry, too).

2.  The installation of Turbo C++ may have corrupted or overwritten
some system component(s) or .DLLs.

[*]  The last version of "Turbo C++" I saw was about 7 years ago, and
I don't think it was aware of Windows.  So it seems unlikely that it
would interfere with Windows operation.
