Charles Sandmann suggested that I should try downloading a patch file for
QEMM from 
ftp.qdeck.com. I did that, installed it with no problems, and now QDPMI
works fine. Thank you for the advice! The version number of my QEMM is 7.5.
It seems that not all distributions with that version number are bad, just
some with certain dates on the files. I also increased the swapfile size for
QDPMI. I have 100 meg free on the harddisk, but I'm not sure what maximum
size I should ideally put on the swapfile. 

Anyhow, the problem is solved. Thanks again for the help.
