Thankyou to the people who already replied. There was an error in my original
post - the board was an ATI (not AMI) VIP card. Now I know that it was
at fault.  Yesterday I bought a new VGA card - a Tseng ET4000 1Meg (brand QTec), 
and now windows runs like a dream. 

However, I still have a small problem. I wanted to run Windows instead of 
Desqview, but it still looks as though I'll need both, because I cann't 
cut text from non-windows applications to paste in other applications. (Or
am I missing something?) This is something I do a lot in Desqview, using 2
windows in 50 or 60 line mode. Is there a utility I can use in windows to do
the same job?
