Sorry if this is a duplicate.  My server went down and I think the previous post got trashed.

Anyway, I have a problem in my installation that's causing some of the downloaded test programs to fail.
Compilation of everything seems to work fine.

I'm using CWSDPMI and DOS 5.0 on an 80486DX2/66.
The test program 'farptr' and 'nearptr' both fail.  the math test program works but the last four
digits of results are off. (weird)

Help!

Here's the scoop:

environment:
PATH=d:\DJGPP\BIN;E:\BC45\BIN;D:\EXCEL;C:\MSDOS;D:\WINDOWS;D:\PM4;D:\ALDUS;D:\UTIL\PKZIP;
DJGPP=d:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV 

memory:
go32/v2 version 2.0 built Aug 12 1996 22:27:23
DPMI memory available: 6347 Kb
DPMI swap space available: 10441 Kb

Any ideas?
