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:

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;
