Well, I must admit I don't know a lot about this Fossil thangs but the way to
solve your device contention issue is to Run the control panel, select the 
386 enhanced icon and then tell it to "Never Warn" on device contentions
Then when you fossil thang takes over you won't even get a peep out of 
windows.

PS: DON'T Listen to the fools knocking Win3.1 over desqview, they 
obviously can't handle even the MILD learning curve needed to make windows 
work for them..... But they WILL learn that ANY GUI interface will beat
desqview when they find ALL of their warez are no longer supported.
