Short answer: usually, no.  For details please download the file 
v2/faq201b.zip from the same place you get DJGPP and read section 17.5 of 
the DJGPP FAQ list.

This seems to imply that you use the Borland 32-bit compiler.  Chances 
are, they need the Borland's DPMI server to run, which is incompatible 
with CWSDPR0.  I suggest you try either PMODE/DJ or Windows to see if 
that will solve your problem, but don't hold your breath: it probably 
won't.
