But the DJGPP FAQ clearly says that u can use MASM 6.11 COFF output with
DJGPP... Is there any change between 6.11 and 6.15 COFF formats.. sounds
like a very remote  possibility..

I HAVE TO BE ABLE TO USE MASM 6.15 as I need support for SSE ans SSE2
instructions which are not supported by NASM as of now

Any ideas????
AAAAAAAANNNNYYYYTHING will help.. thanx

I think this is a known problem: MASM's COFF output is not fully 
compatible with the DJGPP COFF format.

I suggest to use NASM instead.
