ATI is the worst brand for Linux, so if the problem are your drivers, I'm afraid you've got to find help on fixing the driver's issue rather than a WINE issue caused by the buggy driver and not WINE itself. IMHO, while you wait for the RadeonHD driver you'll earn enough money (even if unemployed) to get an NVIDIA card of the same range :P.
