I assume that you have not yet read the file 'readme.1st', which gives
instructions for setting the two environment variables that DJGPP
programs need to find their files.  To paraphrase:

Edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT, and make the following changes:
 - Add C:\DJGPP\BIN to your PATH
 - Add the line SET DJGPP=C:\DJGPP\DJGPP.ENV

Reboot, and your problems should go away.

If you are still having trouble, please download and read chapters 6 and
8 of the DJGPP Frequently Asked Questions list.  Chapter 6.12 contains
instructions for posting a system report here on this newsgroup. 
Alternatively, you could try out my DJVERIFY installation diagnostic
utility.  The latest alpha version is now downloadable from my web site
(http://www.cs.com/fighteer/).
