B19+update 1: random win95 lockups

I find win95 lockups still occur with great frequency even after
installing b19 update 1.
Control-C'ing a running process (like ls -R) will always lock the
system. Sometimes
a simple typo in bash (like "vf path" instead of "cd path") will lock
up the system. I've
waited up to 5 minutes for win95 to come back, but it doesn't. The
mouse still moves,
but clicks and keyboard input do nothing. Control-Alt-Del gets the
"blue screen"
with the choice of waiting or repeating C-A-D to reboot.
This is retail win 95 + service pack 1 + year 2000 fix running on a DFI
Landmarq
system (DFI motherboard, pentium 166, 512kb pipeline cache, 64mb
memory).
Cheers,
