Hi! guys

Now i will guide you through the whole process of running turbo c++ in windows vista or windows 7 environment.
Things Required:
1. DosBox 0.73
2. Turbo C++

Procedure:
1. Install Dosbox in default location.
2. Install Turbo C. (default location is C:\TurboC3\)
3. Open folder (default – C:\TurboC3\) where you installed turbo c and create a new folder named TC.
4. Copy all other files and folders into TC folder.
So that now address of tc folder should be c:\TurboC3\TC\
 5. Now go to Start>>All Programs>>DOSBox>>Configuration>>Edit configuration.
6. Make following changes in the file.(Use notepad to edit the file,if computer asks for. )

(1) under [sdl]

fullscreen=true
fullresolution=1280×800
(Or you can put 640×480,800×600,1024×768)
(For most latest laptops 1280×800 will be best.)
output=opengl
(if it doesn’t work or colors seem messed up, change it to ddraw)

(2) under [autoexec]

(paste following lines)
mount c c:\turboc3
c:
cd \tc
tc

exit

7. Save file.
8. Now launch DOSBox from desktop or start menu and after 3-5 sec delay, hopefully you will see turbo C with eyes and hands intact.
9. Go to Options>>Directories
10. In all four paths replace turboc3 with tc.

Now you are all set to unleash the programming monster in you.

***********
*  Warning  *
***********

@ Don’t use ctrl+f9 to “compile and run” instead use alt+f9 to “complie” and then click run.
in case you do press ctrl+f9, it will close DOSBox.

Note:

DOSBox is emulating c:\turboc3\ as C: root, so you will be required to save your programs in a folder inside c:\turboc3\
What???????

Make a new folder inside c:\turboc3\
Name it whatever you want and save your programs inside it.

– If you use linux OS even then you can follow above procedure to emulate turbo c through dosbox

Just search for dosbox in repositories.
