(Wrong list, I'm sure, but I've no idea of where else to go)

We're trying to run DJGPP, MSDOS 4.01, a 486 with 16meg, IDE drive, SVGA.

Trying to use gcc, it runs briefly, then freezes the machine to the point that
CTRL-ALT-DEL doesn't boot it -- we have to hit the reset button.  gcc seems to
have written a driver file for cpp, and may have started it up (no debugger
will tell me!)

Trying to run any of the other DJGPP applications dies similarly.

Are we doing something stunningly obvious wrong?
