This line is common to both machines.  Does it mean that you load a DOS 
extender called DOS16M on both your machines?  If so, this might be the 
culprit: that extender might conflict with the CWSDPMI or the DPMI 
environment that Emacs (or any other DJGPP program) needs to run.  Please 
see if Emacs runs when you do not use DOS16M.  Say, you rename 
AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS to some other names and reboot: does Emacs 
run then, or does it still crash?

Yes, if you no longer use any of the old DJGPP v1.x programs that used 
go32 as its extender.

I'm confused.  The Emacs package unzips into a directory tree under 
gnu/emacs, but I don't see any such directory on your PATH.  Can you tell 
me how exactly is Emacs installed on your machines, and how do you call 
it if it's not on the PATH?
