This is a known bug in v2.0beta1, which should be corrected in
the next beta release.  You can browse the list of known bugs

Are you sure you have virtual memory services of QDPMI enabled, and you've
set the QDPMI swap file size to an appropriately large value (the default is
ridiculously small, AFAIK).  You can see what QDPMI settings are in effect
by invoking the program QDPMI.COM which should be in your QEMM installation
directory.

When Win3.x starts up, it broadcasts its start-up message by calling a certain
function of a certain interrupt.  This causes QEMM to move out of Windows' way
in every aspect that involves memory management, so that now Windows is in
charge.
