What does go32-v2 print when you run it with no arguments?  If it reports 
less than 64MBytes of DPMI memory + swap space, you will have to change 
the setting of DPMI memory in the DOS box property sheet to 65535K 
(change this by actually typing that value, because the values suggested 
by Windows end in 16K).

You cannot have more than 64MB of memory in DPMI programs on Windows, 
but I doubt your program needs that much.
