Linking with third party libraries in .lib format?

Please forgive me if this is a FAQ, but I couldn't find it in the archives.
I have some instrument drivers from HP. Each consists of a header file and
a library file (ie xxx.h and xxx.lib). They are intended for use with
either MS Visual C or Borland C. I can compile and link with Gnu C without
error messages from gcc, but the program crashes.
Is there a procedure to either convert the .lib to a .a file, or to
include the right options in my c code to make it work?
