You can't run 16-bit applications on Windows x64. However, you can still use DOSBox or a full-blown virtual machine.

Well, there is no 64-bit DOS so I'm assuming you meant the cmd.exe prompt.

In that case, Turbo C doesn't produce 64-bit code and may well not even run on 64-bit windows, given its age (though I don't know this).

You'd be better off getting gcc (free as in beer and speech) or even Visual C++ Express (free as in beer). Turbo C is a dinosaur and there's really no need to use it for anything nowadays.
