For a start, I don't think your config file is in wonderful conditions, to solve this, download winesetuptk from the wine download page at sourceforge: For a start, delete your fake windows/system directory, as having native dlls when using builtin ones is't a good idea (Wine usually complains about this and says expect trouble). Install the rpm, open the KDE menu, click on run command, type winesetuptk and click on run. Ok,you can sldo do this from a shell. It will find your exysting config file, I advise you click on overwrite, then click on next, now choose the "fake windows installation" option, and give it the location of your current fake windows installation. Now click on next, then on finish, then on overwrite and OK if you are asked if you want to overwrite your existing fake windows directory. Winesetuptk will make a config file specificly for your computer, and will create all the fake dlls and fake windows directories you need.
