My environment is that I'm running Windows 3.0 on a TeleVideo 386 (16MHz)
with Aporia as my shell.  I just got my PageMaker 4.0 upgrade (YAY) after
great anticipation.  I'm having all sorts of interesting problems.

I've been evaluating HyperDisk, which has seemed to run great.  But I found
that I was having MANY UAEs in PM4.0 and decided to eliminate variables.
So first I took OUT HD - the UAEs reduced significantly!  I tried using
progman instead of Aporia, but that didn't seem to make any difference.

I seem to get UAEs at a few places: when converting a file from one printer
to another; when printing a file, AFTER the printing to the print manager
is complete, but before the file is printed; when printing files that
contain mixed graphics and text.

Has anyone else had any problems like these?  Can anyone offer any helpful
(or even not-so-helpful) suggestions?

I've also been running Newpaper 1.3, Zipaper, Usher 1.3.  I've turned them
all off and on again to see if that made any difference.  I also tried
using HyperDisk's options that do and don't release memory to Windows to
no avail.  The most stable configuration seems to be NO HyperDisk when
I'm running PageMaker.

Sigh.
