Installed to AUS notebook with Windows 8 compiler does not work

[Alexander_T_1]

I have installed Intel Compiler for Windows v.10 to ASUS notebook with OS Windows 8.1.

IT does not work. When I try to run some simple program (chit.f90)

The message was the following

LINK:  fatal error LINK1104: cannot open file "chit.exe"

If I click on ifort.exe and try to run the compiler from the command prompt window appear the following message

"The program can't start because mspdb80.dll is missing from your computer. Try to reinstall the program to fix this problem."

I reinstalled compiler two times with the same result.

What version of ifort have you installed?

You don't run the compiler by double clicking on it.  Somewhere under the Start menu the installation will have created one or more command prompts for use with ifort.  You open that command prompt and then run ifort at the command line from within that prompt.

Or, for versions released in the last five years or so, you can access the compiler through Visual Studio.

You need to provide a lot more detail if you want more help.

On my ASUS win8.1 it's easier to open an intel compiler cmd window by use of "start menu x."  That replicates the effect of the icon which is installed in the Apps by name menu of current win8.1 under Intel (it was different in earlier win8.1).

If you have installed an old version of ifort from before even win7 was supported, you will be lucky to make it work.

I suspect you will need an ifort which supports at least VS2010, which may be the oldest VS to work with win8.1 (or includes VS2010 Shell).
