Please, please help. I'm in a big time rush. I've read the FAQ v2, but I get
lost with all the technical jargon. I'm a newbie to C++, and don't know much
about PCs either. I work in a windows environment. I've tried installing G++ on
a PC (486, 8Mb of ram) and tried installing it on my F: drive (some sort of
pentium based beast)
I have some how managed to run my program a couple of times (how I'm not sure),
but usually it crashes big time. I run DOS from Windows, and have tried
installing csdpmilb.zip (DPMI server). I can only get feedback from g032-v2
when using dos from windows - is this right?
DMPI memory available: a tad over 4Mb
DPMI swap space available: 0
Anyway, my source code complies fine, but when tring to run I get the message;
Exiting due to signal SIGSEGV
General Protection Fault at (lots of numbers etc)
... then Windows 3.1 pops up with a window saying;
===============================================================================
MS-DOS PROMPT
This application has violated system integrity due to execution of an invalid
instruction and will be terminated.
Quit all applications, quit windows, and then restart your computer.
===============================================================================
Please could you reply in "thicko" mode please.
Many thanks
Juy
