Notepad has a nasty habit of appending a .txt extension to your files,
so what you get on disk is program.c.txt or some such.  Make sure this
is not your problem by running DIR on the directory where you create
your file.

Section 8.1 of the DJGPP FAQ list has more details about this.

If the above doesn't help, please post here the exact text of the
error message(s) you get when you try to compile.
