HELP: MMU/AmiTCP question

Hello, I'm trying to install AmiTCP 4.0b, PPP.device 1.45, and Control 
Panels 6, and I've encountered a strange problem:

When I attempt to use SlipCall v4 or Control Panels 6 for the GUI front
end, my system crashes in the same manner in either program.  Could my MMU
be to blame?  I'm using the MMU on a CSA Derringer 030/33Mhz/4MB board.  
My system is a 2000 with WB 3.1.

Description of crash: I can access the menu of Preferences items on 
Control Panels 6, but when I activate the Preferences item's window, it 
appears *very* slowly and with *no text* other than the window title and 
the top line of the menu.  No gadgets.  No input fields.  Then the shit 
hits the fan and my system crashes (error #800000008 or something).

I understand that the MMUmay be causing this.  If I disable the MMU
permanently, can anyone anticipate any negative effects (bad idea, maybe)? 

Thanks in advance,

Patrick Sullivan
