I suggest you try running Win3 under clean DOS, and make a Program Manager
item to run the MKS shell.  Run MKS shell from inside Windows, not the
other way around.

You specified that you had a 386.  I suggest you try running 386 Enhanced
mode.  Then you can have multiple MKS shells, running at the same time.  You
can even switch between them with hotkeys by making a series of .PIF files,
all of which run the same program (the MKS shell) but each specifying a
different hotkey.
