Hi, This could be a configuration problem as i am trying to run this on my office machine and i have not checked its hardware profile or drivers. Also im fairly new to all this but i know my way around for the most part. My detro: Fedora 8 WINE version: 0.9.56 Done a yum install for wine today, ran without any errors. afterwards went to Applications>Wine>winehelp and nothing seemed to happen. I should note that none of the launchers have icons after >Wine (dont know if thats normal or not). I then tried to run ie6setup.exe (internet explorer) using wine taken from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/thankyou.aspx?familyId=1e1550cb-5e5d-48f5-b02b-20b602228de6&displayLang=en Same result, nothing seemed to happen. >From my terminal i ran the following: [root@me Desktop]# cd /home/me/Desktop/ [root@me Desktop]# ll total 496 -rw-r--r-- 1 me mygroup 491768 2008-03-20 14:49 ie6setup.exe drwxr-xr-x 7 501 501 4096 2007-11-26 06:28 ies4linux-2.99.0.1 -rw-r--r-- 1 me mygroup 197 2008-03-13 16:35 OpenOffice.desktop [root@me Desktop]# wine ie6setup.exe fixme:advapi:CheckTokenMembership ((nil) 0x11d9c8 0x32fd78) stub! fixme:advapi:DecryptFileA "C:\\windows\\temp\\IXP000.TMP\\" 00000000 Application tried to create a window, but no driver could be loaded.
