First run winecfg, go to "Drives" tab, choose CD/DVD drive from which you installed your game, click "Show Advanced" and set "Type" to CD-ROM then click Apply or OK. Please note that some games check for its CDs ONLY drive from which they were installed (this is actually game's bug not Wine) but most games check all your CD-ROM drives (this is correct and fortunatelly typical behavior). If this doesn't work for you then as Pavel Troller suggested try to install nocd crack if available. If this doesn't help either you may try CrossOver or even Cedega. Unfortunatelly Cedega is based on very old Wine code so it supports much less games than Wine or CrossOver but it include support for copy protections that some games uses. _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
