Sorry for omitting that.  The error was:

	w32.c(3820) : error C2520: conversion from unsigned __int64 to double not implemented, use signed __int64

Nope.  Same error.

Else-thread, Stefan Monnier asked:

> Wouldn't it be better to cast to (double) ?

That doesn't help either.  Each of these variations causes the same error:

	    totphys = (double)(memstex.ullTotalPhys / 1024.0);

	    totphys = memstex.ullTotalPhys / (double)1024.0;

	    totphys = (double)memstex.ullTotalPhys / 1024.0L;

	    totphys = (double)memstex.ullTotalPhys / (double)1024.0;
