*NO* swap space?  What kind of Windows installation is that??  Please
check these items (in that order) and post the results: 

	- free disk space (before and after starting Windows)
	- the type and size of the Windows swap file
	- do you use 32bit disk access and (if that's Windows 3.11) 32bit 
	  file access?
	- the settings of XMS and EMS on the emacs.pif file you use (yes, 
	  I know it's from the distribution, but check anyway)

Does this change also happen if you run any DJGPP program other than gcc?

Can you please try to run `temacs.exe' on this (problematic) system, as 
well as on a machine where Emacs works, and report the results?  Don't 
expect too much from `temacs', but it should start, show the startup 
screen, allow you to use some basic editing commands, and exit without 
crashing.  This is how you should invoke `temacs':

	temacs -l loadup
