if yes.. then which compiler is best for compiling them?
+1
A:
I work in a place where a colleague (not myself) uses a Borland compiler on 386 vintage computers.
He often has problems with memory management and has to choose very carefully which drivers he loads in DOS.
So, I wonder if you're using older software on older equipment?
You might be running into a limitation of the equipment.
Describe your configuration as fully as possible.

Well, as I said, it's a colleague using a Borland compiler, and a Pascal one at that. I don't think I've heard him complain about the error you describe, but I'll mention it when I see him.

@vaibhav: Borland C++ 5.5 - that's the version they gave away for free about ten years ago. That's _very_ ancient. This compiler has very serious deficiencies many of which very fixed in later versions. AFAIK, there are free editions of at least one later Borland C++ compiler. Search for Turbo C++. (Beware, though: incredibly ancient DOS versions of their compilers were called that, too.) Currently the best free C++ compilers you can get for Windows are GCC and VC++ Express. The latter comes with a nice IDE and tries to lure you into .NET. The former is pure command line.

may be it is trying to write on read only memory. try using next higher version of borland
