General Protection Error Again - Plz Help ASAP

[akmkat]

When I try to compile the following code with N = 1024, "General Protection Exception" occurs, but wehn N < 20, there is no problem. I need N = 1024, what'll I do? Plz help anyone

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
 
#define L 20
#define V 30
#define O 2
#define N 1024
 
struct Element
 {
    unsigned int c[L];
    int value ;
 };
 
struct Variable
 {
    struct Element e[V] ;
    double y[V] ;
    double f[O] ;
 };
 
void initializeElement(struct Element*);
 
void main(void)
 {
    struct Variable *x ;
    int i,j ;
    x = (struct Variable*)malloc(sizeof(struct Variable) * N);
 
    if( x == NULL )
      {
        printf("not enough memory");
        exit(0);
      }
 
    for( i = 0 ; i < N ; i++ )
        {
          for( j = 0 ; j < V ; j++ )
              {
                 initializeElement(&(x[i].e[j]));
                 x[i].y[j] = 0 ;
              }
 
          for( j = 0 ; j < O ; j++ )
              x[i].f[j] = 0 ;
        }
 }
 
 
void initializeElement( struct Element *e)
 {
    int i, r ;
    for( i = 0 ; i < L ; i++ )
        {
          r = rand() % 1000 ;
          if( r < 500 )
              e -> c[i] = 0 ;
          else
              e -> c[i] = 1 ;
        }
    e -> value = 0 ;
 }

vc6 is giving me no error with this code. I calculated that you are allocating 2.8mb here which should not cause a problem unless you are using a 1994 olivetti with 2mb ram. Probably not :)
