    Talking Borland C++

    Hello everyone!
    I have a question about Borland C++ 4.02.
    Will it install & work under Windows NT (4.0 & 2000)?
    Or should I use M$ Visual C++ 6.0?
    It is for (learning and) programming Sockets under Windows & Unix.
    Thnx

    thnx...
    but i don't think that NT will allow me to access the hardware directly (not in connection with sockets).
    i am also using assembly in my c++ programs to access the hd & ram & bios & the video card.

    It doesn't matter if you coded it directly up using a hex editor. Under NT you cannot get direct hardware access unless you've written a device driver.
