Hello,

I wish to ask the experts out there for help because I'm using djgpp
under windows NT and I have a couple of strange problems.

First, rhide (v 1.4.7) behaves very strangely: the mouse cursor is there
but it doesn't move nor "click"; also sometimes, after starting rhide,
if I try to move the mouse then the ide aborts suddenly, returning me to
the DOS screen.

Second, I can't link my program: compliling works, but linking fails or
(worst) crashes the whole machine (have you ever seen NT crashing? Not a
nice thing... :-(( ) 

I have (at my university labs) a very minimal installation of djgpp
(about 5 MB, a significant part of my disk quota), can this be the
origin of the problem or there are known incompatibilities with djgpp
and NT?

On a w98 environment with the same minimal installation of djgpp
everything works fine, so I really don't understand if the problem is
caused by NT (perhaps misconfigured?) or if I am missing somewhere
something important.

Any suggestion welcomed. TIA

PS: Sorry for my bad english, my mother tongue is italian.
