I had the same problems.  What i had to do was, delete space.spx and
clock.spx.  Make sure you specify the path to the directory where the
files are located in your win.ini.  Everything then works fine in
enhanced mode.

Space.spx has a bad checksum and i have no idea why it doesn't like
clock.spx.  I got my version from terminator.cc.umich.edu.
