When it says that the OS version should be 98 or 9x, that means that your wine config file should speciy win98. The message that you read doesn't mean that msi can only read .msi files that are from 98 or 9x, so unless I'm mistaken, msi should be able to open mp3br.msi even if it was written in/for XP. The one problem with this is that msi isn't exactly complete yet, so it might be a problem with wine's implementation of msi that is causing your problem. If you haven't changed your OS version yet, edit your .wine/config file and make this change: [Version] ; Windows version to imitate (win95,win98,winme,nt351,nt40,win2k,winxp,win2k3,win20,win30,win31) "Windows" = "win98" On Sat, 11 Sep 2004 16:29:37 -0500, Rodrigo Poblanno Balp <balpo@xxxxxxx> wrote: > I can touch the file, but keep with the same error.
