I have had exactly the same problem with my Packard Bell AXCEL V 286/12 and
Windows 3.0.  The problem only occurs when I have nothing in Extended memory.
So I am forced to put a disk cache into extended memory, and, since I only
have 1 meg, this forces me to run Windows in real mode.

Any help with this is GREATLY appreciated!
