Graphics.h on codeblocks in windows 8

I am trying to compile a graphics.h code in codebloacks in windows 8, but the problem is it doesn work. First i followed some directions n foenloaded the directories and added the linker. But after i built the code (mo error), it just doesnt run! The run window opens and it says filename.exe has stopped working. How do i run the code in windows 8? And no, i do not want to use dos emulator in this. I have tried it and it works, but i thought itd be better to find a way to run it in codeblocks itself.
