Please Help.

I am trying to dynamically allocate memory for a buffer.  I wrote a
header file that loads and displays pcx files.  I need to use a buffer
for the decompressed image.

I'm using code like this:

unsigned char *imagebuffer;
imagebuffer = (unsigned char *)malloc(bufsize);
if (imagebuffer == NULL)
{
	`error_handler(NOT_ENOUGH_MEM);
}

It always exits with a "Not enough memory" error.

Any help would be appreciated.
