I have version 2.22 installed, which isn't quite as current. I'll go and
download the newer drivers and keep my fingers crossed. Thanks.

Hmmm, well I hate pulling bits out, but I'll give it a try. I must admit,
my TP with 32Mb appears subjectively to perform about as well as my desktop
when it had 16Mb. However, Win95 tells me I have 32Mb on board, and I do
tend to run about 4 programs at the same time without too many problems.
Trouble is, Win95 rarely performs well without huge amounts of RAM anyway
it seems.

Thanks for the advice. I tried this, and when I hit ALT+ENTER to shift the
MSDOS window into fullscreen mode, nothing happened! I tried again... and
again... and eventually hit the "Fullscreen" icon on the window. CRASH! I
got the "exception at 0E in VXD APIX(01)" error again. Argh. So, perhaps
the problem isn't in the suspend mode, but something deeper than this.
Another point is that when I next try and reset Windows, it just sits there
for a while before reporting "program not responding" several times. Each
time I have to terminate the program (whatever it is, it doesn't tell me)
before Windows will reset. It's a bit tedious. This First Aid program
sounds like it might be a worthwhile investment, although I'm usually
rather skeptical about such utilities. Also, getting hold of software here
in Darwin is rather challenging.
