[comp.windows.ms] Windows 3.0, Gateway 2000, SHARE.EXE

Has anyone figured out how to make Windows 3.0 stable on a Gateway 2000
running MS-DOS 4.01? After having had problems with Microsoft Excel and
printing from Windows because of a cable (the cable and printer combo
worked fine when printing from DOS), I have run into more problems with
Windows 3.0 on my new 33MHz 386 Gateway 2000.

1. hDC FirstAps DeskTop module became corrupt and would not run. I had
   to reinstall it.
2. Word for Windows 1.1 became corrupt and I had to reinstall it.

I noticed that the Gateway MS-DOS manual notes that SHARE.EXE should be
removed when installing Windows software. Has anyone figured out how to
make Windows 3.0 on a DOS 4.01 machine stable yet?

Thanks...todd
