I will try tomorrow night.

I tried with the mak3792b.zip from Simtel and the results were a mixed bag:
    1) Ran make and it built make.exe (still got the 183 message as
expected)
    2) Deleted *.o and *.exe files
    3) Ran make and I got a memory allocation dialog box pop up in Windows.
    4) Killed the cmd dialog
    5) Ran command.com and deleted the *.o and *.exe files again
    6) Changed to a full screen dos display.
    7) Ran make, unfortunatly it compiled some programs and then locked
Win2K completly up and I had to reset the PC.
