Please give more details, like what is your compilation command line, what is the version of go32, what is your machine configuration, etc. The DJGPP FAQ list (available as faq102.zip from the same place you get DJGPP) explains in section 6.11 what details should you post to help people help you. And once you have the FAQ, it is worthwhile to read the entire chapter 6, because it just might include a description of your problem and its solution.
