I had the same problem with BC++ 3.0. You need to go into the DOS properties
of the program item for BC++ and set the DOS_DPMI_API (or something like that)
to "ENABLED" Then, set the DOS_DPMI_LIMIT to something comfortable, like
6 or 8 Mb. Finally, set the DOS_IDLE_DETECTION (or something to that
effect) to 100 to disable OS/2's idle detection of BC++ (or the compiler
will be terrible slow). Hope this helps.

ps. If you use the commandline version from a DOS Box, you must set the
properties of the DOS box to those described for BC++ program icon.
