At a guess, I'd say emdll1x.dll on the new machine doesn't correspond to
dvipm167.exe.  Perhaps it wasn't properly replaced when you installed the
new dvidrv.  In any case, dvipm167 is the 16-bit version of dvipm, and should
only be used on 16 bit machines running OS/2 1.3, since it is approximately
1,637 times slower than dvipm, the 32 bit version of the program.  Try
installing dvipm and emdll2x.dll, and see if that works.
