What sort of error messages do you get ? Perhaps you could explain how
your machine behaves when your program is run ?
I would be interested as well in what limitations DJGPP code has under
the Windows operating system. So far I've found that I couldn't get the
GDB debugger to work at all under Windows. It simply aborts with a
General Protection fault.
