Start Windows 3.11
Install WinZip
Extract the above three files into separate directories under C:\TEMP
In the Program Manager go to 'Main' --> 'Windows Setup' --> 'Options' --> 'Change Network Settings'
Select 'Networks...'
Select 'Install Microsoft Windows Network:' and hit 'OK'
Select 'Drivers'
Select 'Add Adapter'
Select 'Unlisted or Updated Network Adapter' and enter in the 'WFW311' directory under the path which you extracted the network drivers to (in my case - 'C:\TEMP\NIC\WFW311')
Select the Intel 2104x adapter and hit 'OK'
By default Windows 3.11 will enable IPX and NETBEUI
feel free to leave these enabled if you think you will use them - but there is no harm in removing them
(note that NETBEUI is not used by Windows XP - so this will not work for Host <--> Guest file sharing)
Select 'Add Protocol...'
Select 'Unlisted or Updated Protocol' and enter in the location that you unpacked the TCP/IP stack to.
Hit 'OK', Select 'Microsoft TCP/IP-32 3.11b' and hit 'OK'
Select the TCP/IP entry and hit 'Set As Default Protocol'
Select 'Setup'
Setup the network according to your network
Note: While Windows 3.11 supports DHCP, if you use it you still need to define the gateway and DNS servers by hand (you do not need to configure a WINS Server). If you are using shared networking you should set both of these values to '192.168.131.254'.
When you are done - hit 'OK' and 'Close' and then 'OK'
Enter in your username, workgroup and computer name for the virtual machine
Hit 'OK'
Enter Disks 7 and 8 of the Windows 3.11 install disks when prompted
Select to 'Restart Computer'
Start Windows 3.11
Login with your new user account (you will need to create a new password)
To confirm that networking is working at this stage - try opening a MS-DOS Prompt from the 'Main' group and running 'ping blogs.msdn.com'
Open up file manager and go to the place where you extracted the Internet Explorer files ('C:\TEMP\IE' for me)
Run 'setup.exe'
Select to install the 'standard' version - not the 'full' version.
The full version will install a tweaked TCP/IP stack that will constantly try to connect over a modem (and drive you crazy - trust me - I know).
Complete the installation of Internet Explorer
Select to reboot your computer again
Start Windows 3.11 and login again
Internet Explorer will finish setting up
Specify your timezone (that was unexpected - wasn't it?)
*** DON'T START INTERNET EXPLORER! ***
(the default home page setup by Tucows will cause IE to crash)
Go to 'Main' --> 'Control Panel' --> 'Internet Properties' and change the home page to something else
Start Internet Explorer and enjoy the heady experience of browsing the Web under Windows 3.11
