did you install the compiler in the recommended directory? you may have to point to it.

The best program to use, I find, is Visual Studio 2003 if you can get your hands on it! Any IDE will have a compiler built in.

 

Hey Wolf,
More than likely somehow the program did not end up being in your path for your environment variables ciorrectly, what you can do to test if it works for sure is use a direct path to the program to compile

something like

"c:\program files\borland\bin\bcc.exe" myprogram.c

or c:\BCC55\bin according to that link

See if it will compile then, if this works then you probably just need to fix the environment variables.
