It's worth the test. Hi. Trying this part out now. First I tried the default config as created by WineTools. That didn't work. The Autocad install program (Setup.exe) failed due to the wrong OS being reported. I tried putting the above stub in my config file but that didn't work since the install program is called setup.exe, so I decided that (hopefully) for just the install portion I could switch the reported OS version to XP and start the install. That works, but then the install fails telling me it cannot find Microsoft install stuff. At this point I switched back to win98 version, and using WineTools installed just the Windows Installer from the Windows System Software menu. That went fine. Then, back to XP once more and tried the installation again. This time I got further: [mark@Godzilla cdrom]$ wine setup.exe [mark@Godzilla cdrom]$ fixme:mmtime:timeBeginPeriod Stub; we set our timer resol ution at minimum fixme:mmtime:timeBeginPeriod Stub; we set our timer resolution at minimum fixme:mmtime:timeBeginPeriod Stub; we set our timer resolution at minimum fixme:ntdll:RtlImpersonateSelf (00000002), stub fixme:ntdll:NtAccessCheck (0x4eb16f70, 0x40, 00000001, 0x4e7af718, 0x4e7af6f4, 0 x4e7af728, 0x4e7af708, 0x4e7af72c), stub fixme:advapi:RevertToSelf (), stub fixme:thread:NtSetInformationThread Set ThreadImpersonationToken handle to (nil) fixme:thread:NtSetInformationThread Set ThreadImpersonationToken handle to 0x44 fixme:ver:RtlVerifyVersionInfo (0x4e7af5fc,64,180000): Not all cases correctly i mplemented yet An error occurred while Windows Installer was initializing.

This can occur if you are r unning Windows in safe mode, or if the Windows Installer is not correctly instal led. Contact your support personnel for assistance. [mark@Godzilla cdrom]$ I don't know what to look for. Is the line above MsiInstaller referring to a file that's missing or a system function that's missing? I do not have a file by that name: [root@Godzilla root]# updatedb [root@Godzilla root]# slocate MsiInstaller [root@Godzilla root]# So, these results move me forward quite a bit, but still there are problems. Any ideas about how to get around them greatly appreciated.
