New user having ALT-TAB and freeze issues

Hi,
I installed Object Desktop yesterday and have tried running a desktop and Windowblinds 5 together. My system has frozen three times and had to be hard booted, in two cases it froze and in the last it went to a grey striped screen too so I suspect these are all video issues.
I now have windowblinds running and have turned off the desktop -- so far so good, even though I would prefer the desktop to work! But there is still a really annoying issue for me. In my work I am constantly alt-tabbing between two windows with a messenger window also running but minimized. Rather than alt-tab using the keyboard, I use a MS mouse which defaults to reproducing the alt-tab command with a press on the mousewheel switch. This is very fast and pretty much essential to me especially when I am using a laptop. The problem is that with windowblinds runnning, alt-tab does not work correctly and the messenger window keeps popping up as well as the next window in the sequence. I then have to click to hide it again. So in other words, with three windows running, when I tab from A to B, both B and C open instead of B alone. Any thoughts on this?
I am running a 1.6ghz Turion based laptop with Radeon Express 200M graphics and 640Mb of available memory.
