    yes, I did say Windows 3.11 ;)

    I was able to install DOS 6.22 fine. When I install Windows 3.11 right at the last moment where it says Windows is booting up, Parallels crashes. I have tried this 5 times now and each time it dies at the same place. Anyone have any ideas how to complete the installation?

    I am installing this on an Inten iMac. I have given the VM 250mb of space and 32MB Ram.

    Thanks everyone!

    Did you changed your guest OS type to Windows -> Windows 3.11 in VM configuration before installation of Windows 3.11?

    Ok , now for a bigger question, anyone know how to get TCP/IP working with this? I tried to use some of the various network card drivers offered under setup but none seem to work.

    I actually got 3.11 running under VPC.... It was a hoot to see that thing fly. No practical reason, other than running some really old games, but I think I may have the file you need in order to get networking. It was a pain in the rear to find.
