turbo pascal compiler 5.5...

[IamBen]

Everytime I attempt to run the install file on disk 1 of two file, I get an error saying it can't run on my version of windows, check if 64bit is needed or 32 bit (something along these lines) how can I get past this issue?!
Thanks guys!

IamBen,

Turbo pascal is incompatible with Windows 7. In other words it does not work on windows 7.

Is your processor x64 or x32 based? If you dont know then right click on my computer, if it says x64 version of windows then it is x64, if it says nothing or says x86 then it is x32 based.

There are many other pascal compilers on the internet,

Choose the x64 or x32 version as per your hardware.

Hope this helps,

Yeah 64 bit, the website I was using to learn pascal told me that it would work, but thank you I'll use those compilers!

Turbo Pascal is DOS based. You cant run that on an x64 operating system. You would need an emulator like Dosbox to run it or you're welcome to give the many other alternatives available on the internet a try.

Pascal!??? that's something I haven't heard for ages, is still alive eh. Yup, I had a few utils written on turbo basic and 64 bit broke them. Is OK, I like java scripts better.

I have to learn pascal for AS computing.. xD

I have to learn pascal for AS coputing.. xD

And one of the nicest language.

Maybe there is a 32bit emulator, hopefully free, somewhere out there.
