Yes.  Well, mostly working. :-)

I'm also running a 2108 and I have almost the same symptoms.  In 
standard mode, Windows Write loses keystrokes.  It loses so many that
at first I thought the system had hung, but after I smashed my fist
down on the keyboard and held it there, the odd keystroke started to
make it through!

Anyway, if I run Windows in real mode I have no problems.  If I run
in standard mode *but* run Terminal first, I also have no problems.

Configuration:  8MHz 286 Wyse 2108, Bocaram/AT, Hercules mono.  I
could swear that I had no problems until I added the second hard disk
a few weeks ago.  (I don't bother with Windows much anymore -- it just
doesn't give me anything I need.)
