Many thanks to all that wrote to me with suggestions.  The winner of the Most

  You probably still have the original bigTeX .fmt-files (of the
  non-Beta-Version), which are not compatible with emTeX386. Either get
  the Beta-Version of bigTeX or simply recreate the .fmt files in
  \emtex\btexfmts: (replace "btex -i"  by "tex386 -i" in fmt.cmd and
  then run fmt.cmd, this should in fact do the job).

That did the trick.  Thanks again.
