Any Windows for Workgroups 3.11 experts in the audience?

If my network cable is unplugged I get "EMM386 has detected error #06 in an application at memory address 00B8:1460" and Windows won't start. Ethernet card is a Realtek NE2000-type PnP ISA card.

Anyone know of a fix? Other than keeping a second system.ini with networking turned off?

Small update on my #Thinkpad 755C. I put in a 4GB CF-Disk (8GB isn't supported by the BIOS) and installed #MSDOS 6.22 with #Windows311 on one partition and #Windows95 on a second partition.
It was a bit painful to find all necessary drivers, and the #DOS driver for the soundcard is almost unusable - mostly distorted and when speech is output, the laptop freezes. The Windows 95 drivers are better, but I haven't gotten the DOS games to use them, yet.
Also, some games like #Albion or #TheSettlers don't like the Western Digital graphics card.
But a lot of the old games I liked work fine, like #MightAndMagic 4/5 and #IndianaJones 3 and 4. It's more a nostalgia project, I know the games work better using DOSBox or Wine.

This week I felt creative and made these sticker sets, one for Windows 3.11, the other for Windows 95. Sadly, I can't offer them as they are guaranteed to infringe some copyright and trademarks 😅
