I'm running Windows on an AST Premium 386 with 4MB. After the usual amount of
fussing, I got Windows up and running, along with non-Windows apps, etc.

Everything works great EXCEPT Telnet.  It starts all right, but freezes my PC
within a minute after I start it.  Often the screen goes blank.

Win/QVT NET works great, but I have to support users who do data entry and want
the larger standard screen type that Telnet uses.

If it makes any difference, I'm using a packet driver and am also connected
to a Novell network.  I thought setting BIOS=YES in my config file would take
care of the problem, but it didn't.

Telnet works great outside of Windows.  Any ideas?  PIF or CONFIG.TEL settings?
Any help you can give will be greatly appreciated.
