turbo pascal and windows98

I just got a new computer with windows98 and I can't get a single program made in turbo pascal 7.0 to run. It doesn't matter wether the program has already been compiled on another machine or not. It always gives me runtime error 200.

    this might work but i dunno.


    right click on the EXE file and then goto

    properties, then click the program tab,

    then click advanced properties and check the box that says "disable program from detecting

    windows and that should (hopefully) solve the problem.

    Thank you for the info, unfortunatly it didn't solve the problem. If you have any other suggestions I would be happy to give them a try.

    I have the same problem with my machine. Can you tell me the specification of your machien my computer is a Intel Celeron 333 with a 128 mb of ram, Windows 98, AGP Graphics ATI RagePro, Soundblaster and the other usual. Maybe I will mail Borland and ask. Oh by the way Microsoft Quick Pascal works in place of Borland.





  • Unfortunately, there's a bug in the CRT unit.

    You will have to get a replacement unit from

    http://sigmanet.hypermart.net/archives.htm.

    It's right near the top.


    It has to do with the delay function. In the

    initialization section, there is a timing loop.

    (Delay is a software delay!!) It uses a longint

    (or a word, can't remember which!), and on fast

    machines it overflows and causes an error ;(...

    So the new CRT unit should fix your problems!


    OK?


    - SycerMan


    P.S. There are 2 free Pascal compilers for

    Linux - FPC and GPC. They are both way more

    advanced than TP - because they are being

    actively developed.


    There is also a DOS/Windows compiler called P32.

    It's at www.cryogen.com/p32
