You could try the Zeus for Windows IDE:

   http://www.zeusedit.com
   NOTE: Zeus is shareware.

It should be easy enough to configure Zeus for VHDL.

FWIW the next Zeus release will come with better configuration
for VHDL and will also add code folding for the VHDL language.

The Zeus keyboard is Windows aware and is also fully configurable.

Generally Zeus will load in less than a second.

Zeus provides code hierarchy via the information provided by
the ctags utility.

I am not sure if ctags supports VHDL, but if it does this information
should apear in the class panel of the navigator.
