Getting from MKS to MS Windows

Has anyone had any luck firing up MS windows 3.x from MKS?

I normally run MKS at the "UN*X like" level.  When I start up windows I get
the copyright screen and then it exits back to MKS without any type of error
message.  I've tried this with both "switch -" and "switch '\'".  Any other
suggestions?

Note:  if I boot MS-DOS and start windows, everthing works fine.

Thanks.
