Well, I'm having the same problem lots of people are having.  I can't
get Borland's Turbo Debugger to work under Windows 3.1 with my video card.
The symptom is that when I switch from the TDW screen to the user screen 
(this includes exiting the program), I get a mess of text characters and
I'm locked up. I'm wondering if:

1) Anyone who has a Portacom Eclipse II video card has been able to 
   get it to work with TDW.

or

2) Anyone has been able to get the TVESA.DRV driver to work with TDW.
   I ran TESTVESA and it reports that my video card understands VESA and
   should use TVESA.DRV.  Now maybe TESTVESA is confused or something, but
   my system exhibits the same behavior with TVESA and it does with
   everything else.

I've tried to get through to Borland, but their tech support number has
been busy.  I tried Portacom, but they were not aware of the problem.

Thanks.  

Pete
