Good news, I now have admin rights and I want to know which compiler I should use.

Assuming Windows, I would recommend MinGW. LCC is ok. A lot of people use Microsoft's Visual stuff, Express Edition.
Try out more than one and pick which suits you best. You can do that now that most of the good ones are freely available.
My best code is written with the delete key.
Better yet, use several all the time, each set to their maximum warning level.
If your code passes muster with all of them, then your code is probably pretty close to standard C, and not something compiler specific.
If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

Hence why I used the qualifier "almost"... afterwoods
Yeah, I missed the almost.
Quite a few compilers can claim partial C99 support, though.

I believe Comeau has full C99 support.
There is no greater sign that a computing technology is worthless than the association of the word "solution" with it.
