Turbo Pascal 7 doesn't function properly on fast computers (ie 300Mhz or more), and so obviously wouldn't work on Celeron.
The reason for this is some kind of timing code that makes the software run at the wrong speed.
Any software compiled with TP7 will NOT work unmodified on fast systems.
Borland hasn't released ANY kind of Patch or Fix (what the hell are they like?) - anyway there are some Public Domain patches out there to fix the programs.
The best bet is to use TP6 - that works without ANY problems.
Earlier versions of TP and Borland C seem to be affected as well with this timing bug.
You will get 'Runtime Error 200'.
: TP 7.0 can't work at Celeron Processor?, there is solution?, cause I work at Celeron Processor. Email me please.
: thanks' all
