This is the wrong way to install DJGPP.  You need to unzip ALL the
*.zip files from the same directory.  That is, do NOT create a
separate directory for each .zip file, unzip them all from c:\djgpp.

I'm quite sure your problems all stem from the fact that you have
disrupted the directory structure that DJGPP expects to find.  That is
why nothing works for you.

Maintaining directory structure does NOT mean to make a separate
folder for every zip file.  It means that you preserve the directories
recorded INSIDE the zip files.  Most unzip programs do that
automatically, but PKUNZIP needs the -d switch to do this.
