All the DOS compiler EXE's do NOT work. Something to do with a GO32 stack problem or something. Anyway here is how to get a working GCC environment under XP: Go to Graeme Evans site and download the GNU c++ 2.8.1 compiler http://www.netyaroze-europe.com/~frothy/ftp/gcc281.ZIP Next go to Michael Garcia's site and download his setup file http://www.netyaroze-europe.com/~mgarcia/ftp/setup.zip Unzip GCC281.zip to the root of your drive and you will have a directory named c:\PSX3. Now replace "C:\psx3\mips-unknown-ecoff\lib\libsngcc.a" and "c:\psx3\djsetup.bat" with the ones from Michael Garcia's file and you'll be laughing. GCC under XP. The only catch is that everything must be in the c:\psx3 directory. Enjoy Mark Ps. I don't know what or if there are any differences between the GCC281 compiled EXE's and the ones compiled with the standard tools.
