[comp.sys.ibm.pc] Bugs in MS-Window 386 or DOS 4.0 ?

Hello, I have a problem running MS-Window 386 on my PS/2 model 80.
I used to run Window 386 ver 2.03 with DOS 3.30 and there was no problem.
When I update my DOS 3.30 to DOS 4.0, I have problem to run WIN386.EXE, I get
an error message 'Protected mode already installed'. But there is no problem
with WIN86.COM.
Then, I update my MS-Window 386 ver 2.03 to ver 2.10. The problem persisted.

I also can not run my TURBO-C program inside the MS-Window. I get an error
message 'System 386 not correctly installed'. This was not problem when I used
Window 386 ver 2.03 with DOS 4.0.

Is this the MS-Window 386 problem or DOS 4.0 problem or @#$&% ?
Thanks for your opinion.
