I would like to see the full error message printed when you try to run
a floating-point program after setting 387=n.  Please post that here.

Please also post the contents of your AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS,
and the output of the command "set" typed at the DOS prompt.

> What is the set 387=n supposed to accomplish?

It is supposed to force the startup code to load a floating-point
emulator.  Do you have a file emu387.dxe in your `bin' subdirectory?
