You can download all 7 setup disks for windows 3.11 at www.kewlone.com

I've never had the problem you've described, but I'd suggest downloading the disks for win 3.11 and loading them. Maybe you just have a corrupt file on your installation disks.

Disks at www.kewlone.com are Windows 3.1 not 3.11 but are OK

Goto:

If you want to just download setup.hlp and patch your disk, however be aware that you may have problems with other files as well!

you can download windows 3.1 disks under the "windows 3.1 resource page".
