This problem is fixed, it was just a little problem with the .exe it was creating.
When I try to compile my code, I get this compile error:

If you know what is wrong (or want the other files) please post. 
Try installing the timer:
The manual under show_mouse() says:
This will only work if the timer module has been installed.
The manual also says under install_timer()
You must do this before installing any user timer routines, and also before displaying a mouse pointer, playing FLI animations or MIDI music, and using any of the GUI routines.
And also you can do this:
#include <allegro.h>
instead of:
#include "allegro.h"
I hope that fixes it.
Thanks, but I'm afraid it didn't work. 
I tried what you said, but I still get the same compile errors.
EDIT: Hmm... there were some files in the project folder that I lost permissions to... tried to fix, couldn't, so I renamed them. Now it works!
