Well, here's another strange problem with Win3 that I hope
someone out there can suggest solutions to...

In standard mode my system always locks up whenever I try
to open a DOS application, unless I load ANY windows
application before that.
This does not occur in enhanced mode (I can open any
DOS applications any time).
The system is a 386/25 with 8MB RAM, and himem.sys, ramdrive.sys,
and smartdrv.sys loaded.

Thank you for any suggestion.
