    VC++ 6.0 on XP ~ When Compiling, it freezes...

    I have a partition on my main drive for FAT32 for my DOS practicing in C++. On my previous harddrive, it worked fine. Now it's trying to compile but it never ends nor links. Is there any way to fix this?

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Try [re]installing the latest VC++ 6.0 service pack.
    If you are having problems with other programs, it may be a hardware or OS installation issue.

    Thanks, I'm downloading the service pack right away. Question: How do I know that I don't have it already? Is there a way to check?

    You could download the SP5 readme files and look at the updated files listing and compare timestamps/versions.

    Didn't see a better way
