   I decided to try Borland C++ 4.5 and Turbo Assembler 5.0 for compiling   
   PCB.  Reason is, I thought of using the Borland C++ 4.x power pack for   
   building DPMI code.   
      
   But my first step was to build what exists, to see if 4.5 would work at   
   all.  It took a while, but I got it going.  Here's the patch:   
      
   ftp://ftp.beewyz.com/users/triflemenot/etcetera/computer/program   
   ing/project/pcboard/0.002.patch   
      
   You also need to rebuild c4base.lib.  c4lib.bat is changed by the patch,   
   to account for building with overlays, like PCB.  That was a bug in the   
   previous setup!   
      
   The size of the pcboardm executable increased by 8K.  Tested and working   
   here.   
      
   I used a Win98 box for this.  The DOS support is better than XP, and the   
   Borland tools work well.  I had some problems with Win98 until I got rid   
   of IE6.  I discovered that IE6 stalls and hangs the desktop on Win98, so   
   I uninstalled IE6, downloaded IE 5.01, and installed that.  Much better,   
   Win98 works fine now.  I was amazed I could still find IE 5.01, but here   
   it is:   
      
   http://browsers.evolt.org/?ie/win32   
      
   5.01-sp2 is the one I used.
