That depends on what you mean by Turbo C. The IDE (editor) of it? Compiler? Some program written in Turbo C? What kind of program? > even the speed of scrolling the screen is unacceptable.

Do you also use Do you also use the FreeDOS kernel power saving function IDLEHALT at the same time? With which settings? If "FDAPM APMDOS" puts the CPU on idle too often, slowing down your programs, try "FDAPM ADV:REG" or "FDAPM ADV:MIN" instead. The default setting is equivalent to "FDAPM ADV:MAX" there. You can see the current setting with "FDAPM STATS" :-) Of course in the MIN setting, less energy is saved. REG is a good compromise.
