No, DJGPP seems not to be suitable for this. If you only need C, try 
Turbo C. You can get it at http://community.borland.com/museum after 
registering. Or does the laptop have a 386 processor? 40mb sounds like 
it is a 286 (it is a typical 286 or 386sx HDD size). And how much RAM 
do you have?

But - there is no real C++ compiler for such machines. Turbo C++ is 
not ANSI C++ compatible and misses many features and is therefore more 
enhanced C than C++.
