Vaux-Killer does work.  Allow me to give you some tips as to what I
did to get it working, and what problems I had along the way:

First, the demo *MUNCHES* memory.  I assume you have enough RAM to
run it?   I believe 2 megs is the minimum.  I have 3 and it runs fine.

Second, I entirely redid Fred's assigns.  I put everything in one
directory on my harddrive and changed the assigns so that TVKD1:
and TVKD2: both point to that directory.

When the player gets to the white screen, the player window must
be activated for the P key to start the demo.  If you're running
a mouse accelerator such as dMouse, it will usually activate
the window it is on, which isn't the player window.  Move the
pointer to the top of the screen to activate the window then
hit P.

I hope this answers the questions.  It's a rather cute demo!
