This can have at least two possible reasons:

1) You didn't follow readme.1st instructions to set up your PATH to include
   your DJGPP/bin directory.  This would manifest by that you have to write
   "c:\djgpp\bin\gxx" to start gxx.exe, too, instead of just "gxx".

2) You're using outdated packages of DJGPP that don't work on XP.  Update.
