It must be your DJGPP installation that needs fixing.
Go to the dos prompt and type 'set'. You'll see a list
of variables. One of them will be 'PATH'. This should
hold the path to your DJGPP\bin directory. There
should also be a 'DJGPP' variable, pointing to the
file 'DJGPP.env'. For example, mine says
--begin---
TMP=C:\WINDOWS\TEMP
TEMP=C:\WINDOWS\TEMP
winbootdir=C:\WINDOWS
COMSPEC=C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND.COM
PATH=C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;D:\CODE\BC5\BIN;D:\CODE\DJGPP\BIN
DJGPP=D:\CODE\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV
PROMPT=[- $P -]
windir=C:\WINDOWS
BLASTER=A220 I5 D1 T4
--end--
See lines 5 and 6. If one of these is missing or
incorrect, your copy of DJPPP has not been set-up
properly. Also, you may not have compiled allegro at
all! You should've dropped into the Allegro directory
and typed 'make'. If you don't remember this, your
copy of Allegro has not been compiled.

READ THE DOCS CAREFULLY!!

Most of these problems are caused by improper instalations.

Peace.
