This is a newbie question, so just put up with me.  I just downloaded a DM C/C++ compiler, but how do I install it/run it??? Is there a manual of some kind that I could download???

Just unzip it and put \dm\bin in your PATH environment variable. -Walter

I did the PATH thing, but when I try to compile the program I get the following output:

C:\WINDOWS\Desktop>cd..

C:\WINDOWS>cd..

C:\>edit hello.cc

C:\>sc -cpp -ms hello.cc
link hello/noi;

You're compiling for MS-DOS 16 bits target platform.
Try using -mn instead of -ms
If you want to compile for MS-DOS 16 bits target platform, you will need
additional libraries.

also you dont need to use any flags to compile it
you can just type

sc hello.cpp

and then

hello

to run it.

Older version default to an other memory model...
