If you already have CWSDPMI installed, and these messages still appear, it might be because of a messed up PATH
setting. The DJGPP startup code looks for cwsdpmi.exe along
the PATH
, and, being optimized for size, it might not be robust enough to cope with all possible cases of weirdness in the value of PATH
. Try to copy
cwsdpmi.exe into the same directory as the program you are invoking, and if that helps, change your PATH
as appropriate.
If you see the message "Load error: no DPMI - Get csdpmi*.zip" on Windows/NT, it most probably means that you have disabled the DPMI services built into NT. One way this might happen is if you edit the autoexec.nt file and remove the line which loads dosx.exe, or change some of the parameters on that line. You cannot use CWSDPMI on NT, so your only bet is to restore NT's built-in DPMI services.
