I intalled dosbox 0.65 and want to run borlandc 3.1 compiler. When I typed the borlandc command, I got some error like: failed to locate DMPI. Does dosbox support DMPI. If so how can I locate it?

Thanks a lot

Try playing with XMS, EMS, UMB memory options.

And be sure you installed your compiler correctly.

I'm quite sure that the borland c compiler is NOT just an executable,
but needs the rtm.exe and things like that.
