Did you follow all installation steps as they are explained in the
emacs.README (to be found where you got your emacs) and the
readme.1st of DJGPP? Did you read the PROBLEMS file which comes with
emacs? Did you set DJGPP=<djdir>\DJGPP.ENV and PATH=<djdir>\BIN;%PATH%
in your environment (which normally is enough to run your programs)?
please give some more info on what you did, please.

 Robert
