In which case you may not have followed them correctly.  Please post
your AUTOEXEC.BAT, and the output of the `SET' command.

Please post the exact message; I can't tell from your description which
message you mean.

Is that a typo?? 13K + 131K is an **extremely** small amount of DPMI
memory, especially for GCC which requires 16+M (yes, 16 or more
megabytes) of memory+swap on many occasions.

If the file was "g++.exe", that's normal.  It's the same name as is used
on Unix and is intended for people using Windows 9x, which allows that
sort of name.  But in your case, don't worry about it; the file
"gpp.exe" has exactly the same functionality.
