I have been having problems with sporadic DESQview hangups. The two things that 
SEEMED to solve this problem were:

1. Allocating more system memory to some program (the main trouble maker beening
Xtree Pro Gold).
2. Increasing Common Memory to 30K.

Allthough none of those is recommended (nor properly documented), it seems to
do the trick. 
If anyone out there KNOWS what those options are supposed to be used for, and 
how to figure out the right parameters, Please inform me.
