You can download the software for any versions of Windows at the turboc.codeplex.com website. It is available for free. This software was first introduced in 1987 from Borland as an IDE and a compiler for C programming language. This was very popular for its integrated development environment, fast compile speed, and small size.
The original Turbo C programming language is in DOS or runs in DOS environment. If you want to use it in Microsoft Windows or in Windows 7, I guess it’s possible. First, download Borland Turbo C++ or Turbo C++ and unpack the ZIP file. You can use WinZip, WinRAR, or 7-Zip to extract the contents. Once the files are extracted, double-click “setup.exe” to start the installation.
On the next screen, click “Skip” then select “Typical” and click “Next”. Leave the default path then click “Next”. On the next screen, don’t change the Borland Database Engine Location Setting then click “Next”. On the next screen, don’t change the Borland Database Engine Component Location then click “Next”. Finally, click “Install” to begin the actual installation. Next, click “Skip”, “OK” then “Skip” again.
And that’s it. Borland Turbo C++ is now installed on your computer. If you are just starting to learn to program, you should learn first C or C++ because it is the foundation of low-level language.
