I have my dad’s old PC from the 1980’s. It’s a Tandy 1000 PC SX:
This computer doesn’t have a modem, but I have another PC that has Windows XP on it and it also has a 5 3/4 inch floppy drive. So where can I find a C/C++ compiler for this old PC?

Oh my God, I haven’t seen one of those in forever. Okay, that’s running a version of MS/DOS, no later than about MS/DOS 3 as I recall.
First thing is to make sure you can read and write a floppy on the XP computer that the Tandy will read.
You’ll need to look for a fairly old version of Turbo C, even, I’d guess. You probably should look into the Tiny C Compiler.
