It sounds as if the path to the compiler supplied header files is not 
set or not correctly set.

Below I assume the compiler was installed into the default location of 
c:\borland\bcc55.  If it was not, substitute the path used on your 
machine.

Check that the file bcc32.cfg is located in c:\borland\bcc55\bin and 
one of the lines it contains is this:

-Ic:\borland\bcc55\bin

where the I is a capital 'i' and not a lower case 'L' or a one.

If that is true then check if the directory c:\borland\bcc55\include 
does contain a file named stdio.h  If it does not then the 
installation failed for some reason, possibly lack of disk space or a 
bad download.

Please note that what you have are the command line tools from the C++ 
Builder compiler version 5.  This newsgroup is for Borland C++, a 
different compiler.  C++ Builder newsgroups all have the word 
'cppbuilder' in their name.

You also might find this page useful to dealing with the compiler:
