   You could try switching to a UNI or W4 kernel, as a test.

   If you are having trouble with multimedia applications that use OS/2's    
   high resolution timer, you can set the Warpzilla browsers to not use it    
   by setting the enviroment variable NSPR_OS2_NO_HIRES_TIMER=1   
      
   As I understand it, if Mozilla is using TIMER0.SYS, other apps can't.  I    
   don't know all the details, but I don't think this is a Mozilla problem:

   I'm also not certain what it actually uses the timer for, but I suspect    
   any issues with it are exacerbated with SMP.
