The problem may not be with the applications at all.  
We have a lot of problems with Win 3.1 and Win 3.11 as memory 
managers and are leaving them behind as quickly as possible.  
With Netscape loaded, and who knows from what else Windows has 
not released the memory, it is not surprising to get the type 
of errors you are reporting.  If Ghostscript works with a clean 
boot straight to Netscape and Ghostscript, then you need to 
consider a better machine/OS or a dedicated terminal.  Of course 
you might want to clean out unused programs and fonts from the 
Windows initialization files as well.
