But, whenever I try > to run go32_v2.exe I get an exception (after running cwsdpmi) First, don't run CWSDPMI (you don't have to, every DJGPP program will load it automatically). Second, please tell what drive letter is the CD where you put DJGPP. Third, please post the exact text of the message printed when go32-v2.exe crashes, complete with all the registers and stack traceback. This data is crucial for understanding the problem. Fourth, if you copy cwsdpmi.exe and go32-v2.exe to your hard disk, does this prevent go32-v2 from crashing? > gcc hiworld.c (when run in a directory on the harddrive) > > also raises an exception? What happens if you run gcc in a directory on your hard disk? > Exceptions are also raised when running in a DOS box of Win95. Which exceptions? Same ones, or different ones? E.g., I hope that when you run under Windows, you don't load CWSDPMI, right? In short, please provide as much details as you possibly can. > [1] I got > alleg30.zip djdev201.zip gdb416b.zip grx23fnt.zip pdc22.zip ^^^^^^^^^^^^ Why not djdev202.zip? v2.01 is not maintained anymore.
