I had a similar problem; I mailed the nice folks out at XFree86.org, and 
they suggested that I try the beta version of the server. Works nicely; 
haven't had any problems with it yet. (FWIW, I've got a W32p, rev A; the 
W32 server that comes with Slackware only supports, AFAIK, revisions C and 
D...)
