I have no problems with that combination (WfWG 3.11).

Have you done any disk checking first (scandisk/ndd) to see
if you don't have problems there?

Win32s doesn't do much of anything 'til you run an app
that needs it. Clean up the disk if it needs it (to fix any
errors) and disable win32s and see what happens.
