Never mind I got it now!
It's a 2 step process.
1) Use the instructions you provided to set the "variable" in Windows XP.
!!!RESTART THE COMPUTER!!!! !!!RESTART THE COMPUTER!!!!
2) When you start BrixCC select RCX2 from the drop-down list.
DUH!!!! =)
The simple things trip me up. ROFL!
Now off to dust the old mindstorm off as I found a non-LEGO use for it.

Thanks ROSCO
I did that and it does work when I am using the "command line" of NQC.
When I do either:
nqc -Trcx2 -d counter.nqc
or
nqc -d counter.nqc
However in BricxCC when I hit compile I get an error saying
Undefined function (SetUserDisplay)
???

Hi Ahui,
You can set environment variables on XP by going to Control Panel / System,
click Advanced tab, and click "Environment Variables" near the bottom.
You can add it to either system variables (available to all users) or just for
the user you normally login with.
Add a new variable, name=NQC_OPTIONS, value=-Trcx2.
Hope this helps.

Still a bit confused on this?
I am running WinXP and not sure where to use the SET command?
Opening up a DOS windows via CMD does show that I have this:
NQC_OPTIONS=-Trcx2
along with a lot of other windows variables but when I go and compile I still
get the error the OP was getting.

I'm going to bring back a 12 year old thread.
I'm using Windows XP and cannot figure out how to set the NQC_OPTIONS=-Trcx2
option. Any idea?
