Sorry for the late RSVP but I figured I would post my experiences as it appears that my request stirred a lot of discussion. The DLL issue was the root cause of the problem. I booted a W2k server and pulled the following: C:\windows\cards.dll C:\windows\system32\cards.dll C:\Program Files\Pinball\* C:\windows\sol.exe C:\windows\winmine.exe I then moved them into the crossover environment in their same locations /home/u/'user'/.cxoffice/dotwine/fakewindows/ That was all it took. I built the menues in KDE for each of the games and that was it. thanks to all those who responded.
