However the process rm -rf .wine winecfg implies that Alsa isn't set up by default. When I do that and go to the Audio tab it tells me nothing is selected and that I have to choose something. I choose Alsa, hear a sound (I think) and then apply it. I'm not sure if the creation of a D: drive and telling Wine that it's a CD is required but I always do it. I suppose I should try a few installs with different choices to see how they go. Thanks, Mark
