To run DJGPP, you only need one SET line in your autoexec.bat. and also you need to put the bin directory in your path. In Win95 system, you might want to edit djgpp.env file to change LFN=y, and that's mostly it. Suppose you decompressed everything in C:\djgpp, you will have something like this in your autoexec.bat file .... set path=%path%;c:\djgpp\bin set DJGPP=c:\djgpp\djgpp.env .... and as the other guy pointed out, what program did you exactly try to run? Knowing that bit of information might be helpful in solving your problem.
