| The source code for ROM posted on this site (see Downloads button above) has been changed to compile under Visual C++.
Alternatively, there are posts in the forum showing how to compile it under Cygwin (using the Unix version of the source).

| You need the source to compile and recompile. I presume from your reply that you already have it?
Detailed information about doing compiles, getting a compiler, making changes, and other useful topics are in the web page How to make changes, including compiling
As far as using Visual C++ to do it, just open the project file (rom.dsp) which comes in the download I mentioned, and then do a "build". |

| The .dsp file is the project file, and the .dsw is the workspace file. Either should open OK.
If not, the source files cannot be in the right place. The simplest thing might just be to add them yourself, using the Project menu -> Add to Project -> Files.
Then add all the .c files. Then try building. If you can't get that to work you might be better off using the Cygwin compiler - at least I have done a line-by-line web page explaining how to compile using that (mentioned in the earlier post). |

| | I have version 6, if you have an earlier one that might be why the .dsp file doesn't work. There will be a way of adding files to a project, I don't remember what it is for earlier versions. |
