Am running WIN98SE here on one box, and have downloaded OpenWatcom 1.1, 
believe you are running WIN NT/2000, when I figure out how to use it/how it 
works, I can test you source on this system. seems there is no "configure" 
with it. probably does things a little different on Windows. Also have a 
1.2gig HDD I could put WINXP Proffesional on for testing purposes.
