The .bgi files are part of Borland's Turbo products.  Strictly
speaking (in accordance with Borland's license statement) either
  1) The author of dartdemo should have included the .bgi with his
     program. 
  2) You would have to buy a Borland compiler, and get the .bgi files
     from there.  
 In practice, you would look for another package that legally
includes the relevant .bgi file.

IMPORTANT!  The .bgi (and .chr) files must not alone be made
available on the net, because that would be a direct violation of
Borland's License Statement.  This is a statement of an inevitable
fact.  Not my personal preference. 

BTW, when I write my own programs for general distribution on the
net, I never rely on this technique of separate video support files. 
I always include them within the executable code.  Much more
convenient for the user, and no potential hassle.
