I didn't mention the FPU before because I was getting
a different error till I re-installed.

Thanks for your help.  I've decided djgpp isn't a very
good fit for what I'm doing and I've installed Borland
and I'm using that.

I'm trying to learn about 3D rotation, etc.  I really
need a debugger and I really need to be in a graphics
mode that will let me use the full screen on this
laptop with it's fixed pixel size.  It seems that
320x240 isn't supported by the debuggers and
640x480x16 isn't supported by allegro.  Just too many
problems and too many added complications when all I'm
really trying to do is learn with it.  I'd like the
environment to be as simple as possible.

I'm dissapointed because I think allegro was going to
make things a lot easier.  Now I'll have to go back to
doing my own fixed point, etc.

Thanks for helping.

Barry
