I have included the following statements in my config file: [AppDefaults\\DWGBOARD.EXE\\x11drv] "Windows" = "win31" "Managed" = "N" "DOS" = "6.20" This gives the best results (at least, it does not freeze anymore). I tried some other win's and dosses. When running "wine ....../DWGBOARD.EXE" is now tells: "Cannot find or read *.FEB file [273]" click ok "Cannot find 'draft.fe'" click ok "Error readind startup file" click ok stuck There exist a "DWGBOARD.FEB" file in the program directory, so I do not understand why the program is unable to find the file (it has ugo read permission). I checked the original installation (Windows 2000 under vmware) and there exist no other *.FEB file. Ah well, I will continue to sniff around. I got somewhat further. Many thanks so far. I start to have some hope to get rid of vmware.
