The system is minimal to say the least: a HP Omnibook 300 under DOS 5.0 with 2MB RAM and 80 MB hard disk. It reports 458K of free DOS memory. I think the problem is caused by the multiple copies of go32 in base memory: 1st for "make', 2nd for "gcc", 3rd for "cc1". I have experienced similar problems when running nested make's on a system with >600K of free base memory. Is there a solution for this problem? Are there newer versions of go32 that use less base memory? Could I use another make utility that can swap itself out of memory? Any help would be appreciated! Thanks - Joep
