Seems like your DOS box leaves too few DPMI memory for your program.
What does go32-v2 print in that DOS box?  If it doesn't report 64MB of
DPMI memory, enlarge the setting in the property sheets (see section
15.6 of the DJGPP FAQ list for more details).

Windows won't let you use more than 64MB, so if you already have that,
you are stuck.
