It appears that Windows for Workgroups 3.11 works on the Aero. 32-bit file
access also appears to work without a problem.

[Q] WFWG Hangs my Aero. Anyone else have this problem? It seems to work fine
though setup, but then it hangs on restart.

[A] You have to get a new keyboard-driver. It's called CPQVKB.386, and can be
found at ftp://ftp.compaq.com/pub/softpaq/sp0501-1000/sp0738.zip. To install 
the cpqvkd.386 device driver:

1.  Exit Windows.
2.  Copy CPQVKD.386 to your WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory.
3.  In the \WINDOWS\SYSTEM directory, use any text editor such
    as DOS Edit to change the following line in the [386Enh]
    section of the SYSTEM.INI file:
        keyboard=*vkd
    to
        keyboard=cpqvkd.386
4.  Save the SYSTEM.INI file.
5.  Restart Windows so the change takes effect.
