simple answer:
Mingw does not support building dos applications.
If some piece of memory should be reused, turn them to variables (or const variables).
If some piece of operations should be reused, turn them to functions.
If they happened together, then turn them to classes.

better of with open watcom if you need to develop for dos, an alternative is djgpp if you prefer using bash.

investigate. void main() is simply not standard C++, therefore it is not supported. standard C++ is int main().
