urrently running MS Fortran 3.3 under DOS 3.0 on an AT with a 80287 coprocessor.Have not encountered any problems, except when running without coprocessor, 
set no87= is required to get nonzero answers.  I suspect that you have an older relase fo the compiler, which Microsoft's personnel were confused about
AT compatability.
