You have replaced your ld.exe with the one RSXNTDJ supplies, havn't you?

It is a bit tricky...

Did WinAllegro ever compile under RSXNTDJ? I don't think anyone's managed it
yet. You don't have to compile it, since it comes with the .dll file already
built.

How have you been compiling the examples? If you're using RSXNTDJ, you need
to go to the examples directory and run make. I've managed to get most of
the examples working by using make.
