Sorry to keep you guys waiting. However, this is about Allegro 4.2 with the use of C with Mappy. And, I would like to show you the source code I made so far. Though, it was messy. As I compile it, I have so much Mappy warnings when using my laptop. But, while using desktop, the program crashed. Is there something that I must fix. Sorry to ask you about it even I should be the one do something about it myself without asking. Yeah, I have a file for you to view and compile. The latest 4.2 is a must and I have some file you need.

You need to compile your program with debugging symbols. With MinGW, this is achieved by passing -g on the command line.

Sorry to ask. How do I do that again in Dev-C++?

ajsuson,
I'm far from an expert but I do use Dev-Cpp when in Windows. I haven't used the command line options very often.
I click Project in the menu along the top, then choose the Project Option. In the project option box there are multiple tabs. Parameter option is fourth on along the top. (on my version, though most are in the same area give or take a tab) Within the Parameter tab is Compiler, C++ Compiler, and Linker boxes. You can add the -g command to the Compiler or C++ Compiler boxes and see if that works.
Let me know how it turns out.

Is there something I should do to fix this stdio.h? Probably, something wrong with stdio.h as if it's not reading at all after making some simple code known as "Hello, World" back there. Like this one:

Again I'm not expert with C but if I was in your position, I would remove Mingw and reinstall. Sounds like something is corrupt with the h file. Just me but I wouldn't edit it or try to patch a new stdio.h file in existing Mingw setup. Maybe more experience programmer can give better advice.
Ace
EDIT: maybe it's not stdio.h but another h file stdio is referencing. Maybe other include files are missing or corrupt in your installation. Again I'm not an expert. Just brainstorming out loud. 
Edgar Reynaldo
Your install is bad somehow. Also, what is -g3 supposed to do? If you mean -g for debugging symbols, that goes before you state the source file, to the left of it.
CodeBlocks and MinGW are a much better answer if you ask me.
