maybe it is taking too long ... ?

hi
the first example I tried never print out anything. maybe movcc does not work with argc,argv,atoi etc, so I got rid of them all, and set the number of primes to a constant 10, and use only one external function "printf". still, it never print out anything. maybe you should give it a try. what is the speed normally like?
main()
{
int n, i = 3, count, c;

//n=10000;
//printf("Enter the number of prime numbers required\n");
//scanf("%d",&n);

n=10;

if ( n >= 1 )
{
// printf("First %d prime numbers are :\n",n);
printf("2\n");
}

for ( count = 2 ; count <= n ; )
{
for ( c = 2 ; c <= i - 1 ; c++ )
{
if ( i%c == 0 )
break;
}
if ( c == i )
{
printf("%d\n",i);
count++;
}
i++;
}

}

// original version
#include <stdio.h>

int main(int argc,char** argv)
{
int n, i = 3, count, c;

//n=10000;
//printf("Enter the number of prime numbers required\n");
//scanf("%d",&n);

if (argc<2) {printf("%s number.of.primes\n",argv[0]);return 1;}
n=atoi(argv[1]);

if ( n >= 1 )
{
// printf("First %d prime numbers are :\n",n);
printf("2\n");
}

for ( count = 2 ; count <= n ; )
{
for ( c = 2 ; c <= i - 1 ; c++ )
{
if ( i%c == 0 )
break;
}
if ( c == i )
{
printf("%d\n",i);
count++;
}
i++;
}

return 0;
}
