Run winecfg and select another version of Windows. That is usually needed on installation only. After that, you can -- and you should, according to a few people on the Winehq website -- keep winecfg configured as Windows XP.

Most of the times, the application does run on Windows XP, but the developer doesn't want to support it, so they put a poison pill on the installation program that will reject Windows XP. Once it's intalled though, it runs.

You need either Airwave or LinVst to run Windows plugins on a DAW, but Airwave does not work on Ardour (or Mixbus), so you'll have to use LinVst.

That problem with Airwave only happens in Ardour. It works fine in any other DAW.

FWIW, I've never gotten Airwave working in Reaper on Archlinux, while LinVst has proven very useful for running windows vsts.
