hi i'm new on allegro 5 i'm just trying to run the first exemples but i have this problem. this might be the visual studio 2012 and not the allegro.

I ran my code and everything works but it only display the console command The graphics only show on the minimize window, i can only see it on that window. i found some one with the same problem that me on google.

Try manually setting your window position.
al_set_window_position

Might be an allegro bug spawning your window off-screen.

Never ran into this issue myself, it only seems to happen on some hardware configurations.
