I am using Desqview 2.2 on a 386 machine (with the QEMM driver).  
One attractive (claimed) feature of the software is its screen 
blanking, which should work in any video mode of my VGA system.  
When I first installed Desqview screen blanking worked sometimes 
but not always.  I have made various changes and now blanking 
never works.  I can't isolate the factor that suppresses blanking.  
Any suggestions?

     By the way, trying to get technical support from Quarterdeck 
is murder.  Last time I spent 40 long distance minutes waiting in 
their queue.  I'm reluctant to go through that again.
