Your description is quite confusing. It should be essentially
impossible to end up with not DPMI if you're running from actual ME
(not from a boot floppy).

Where on earth did you pick up this autoexec.bat setup? It's broken
on several counts:
1) that last line should be loadhigh c:\dos\smartdrv, not set loadhigh=...
2) *Never* put any other compiler's directory in front of DJGPP\bin
on your path. It will not work. You have Borland there.
3) 'set winbootdir' and 'set windir' are utterly useless in an autoexec.bat
-- their effects, if any, can only be harmful.

... is that of an emergency boot floppy or installation boot
floppy. It lacks some crucially important things, most prominently the
device= lines for EMM386.EXE and HIMEM.SYS...
You really will have to read README.1st carefully, and proceed from
there. Odds are you'll need a setdjgpp.bat and a customized desktop
link to command.com to operate DJGPP inside the windowing system. If
you're trying to run in raw DOS (from a floppy, since you're on ME),
things will be different.
