you didn't tell us if your code didn't even work with g95?

It *should* be backwards compatible, i would think!

 And if you're really stuck, i'm sure one of the FC4 packages will be 
a 'legacy' version. My FC4 has only been burnt to DVD, so I can't talk
from experience yet, but will be needing a fortran compiler also.  Let
us know how well g95 works in g77 mode.
