You said that all DJGPP programs ``freeze'' in this way, right?  For
example, does the compiler freeze as well?  If so, it must be
something specific to your system configuration: I use DJGPP programs
both on Windows 95 and Windows 98, and DJGPP programs work for me in
background as well as in foreground.  I suggest to look into
non-standard software installed on your system, or some non-default
Windows configuration option you turned on.

If only some of the programs freeze, please describe which programs
are those, and how exactly do they ``freeze''.
