Try  "SET 387=NO" . You can add this to your autoexec.bat file 
and reboot. So that the 387 Environment variable will be set to NO 
and the DJGPP program will know that no FPU is installed.

Please read Section 11 of the DJGPP FAQ as it contains 
information on running programs on machines without a co-
processor and on the floating point emulator. 

Hope This Helps!
Kalum.
