Which version of DJGPP are you using ? is it the latest ? is it the first
time this hapens with Allegro ? (did it happen before you re-installed ?)

You much free memory fo you have (run go32-v2 after cwsdpmi to see how much
physical/virtual memory is free for your program).

Also, it would be nice if you could post the source of yourprogram, and the
result (symify'ed) of the Allegro programs.
