Subject: 486 freezes reliably?

I'm sure I'm missing something obvious; please open my eyes?

We've got a 486, ISA, IDE disk, 16Meg, running DOS 4.01 and no other memory
manager.  AMI BIOS of 3/15/91, unknown motherboard.

Running any DJGPP thing freezes the machine, such that CRTL-ALT-DEL doesn't
work -- I have to hit the reset button.

Running the gcc, it seems to write a driver file for cpp, then freezes.
Running debug32 gets to paging in the stack space (the "s" in the upper right),
then freezes similarly.

I have a horrible feeling that I've missed something critical, but I can't
figure out what?

--John
