Hi Zhaeon

This problem you refer to is pretty common on this newsgroup. You haven't by
any chance modified your autoexec.bat file? And removed set
djgpp=c:/djgpp/djgpp.env (or whatever directory it was in) ?

If you read readme.1st in the djgpp root directory, it gives some help with
installing the first time (which I'm sure you've read before, because it
used to work, right?). This should get you back on the right track.

If this isn't the problem, you may have to give some more specific messages
given to you by the compiler, and attaching one of those bug recports from
the rhide menu might also be helpful.
