Thanks for all the ideas, I got it to work but only in the command (not cmd) window. The compiled program will also only run when run from the command window. Is that expected and does it narrow down the problem? I think it is something on my system but I am not sure what. go32.exe or in my case go32-v2.exe also only returns information regarding the available memeory when run in the command window. I did find out however that the program that was compiled under the cmd window will run if I run it using the command window. Is there a way to kill all EVs for one CMD window so I can reset them to only the things I want to run GCC?
