What do I need for QBASIC
Good Morning!
I am going to be taking a class this next term in QBASIC. I use Windows XP on this machine. Will I need to install something on this machine to run QBASIC? I know zilch about this subject now (that is why I am taking a class). What would be the best way to prepare for this? Thanks in advance...this forum always comes through for its members! |

you can download QBasic from this site
http://www.geocities.com/Area51/5967/qbasic.html its very small... Im not sure if it will run on WinXP but if it doesnt you could always make a boot disk and put it in there and just load windows with that and run it from dos.

if you happen to have a win98 disc or older lying around, qbasic is included on these discs. I also took a few qbasic classes a while ago, my teacher said it runs on XP (running 98se myself though)
If you take it from a disk you need the qbasic.exe file and if im not mistaking you also need the .ini file from the same folder.
