Your mention of floppy disks in your original post caused a lot of
confusion. You're not really using floppies, are you? It sounds like
you just need something fairly small due to your limited disk space.
(In another article you said your hard drive is 32GB, with 24GB taken up
by Windows. Your free space is still orders of magnitude bigger than a
floppy.)
If I recall correctly, Turbo C++ is badly out of date. You'll need to
decide whether that's a problem for you.
