I'm not sure you tried that exact combination. Should I be downloading a new winetricks for this experiment (still have original one), or specifying win2k vcrun2005sp1? As it stands when I run that exact command it does what it was doing before and not putting dlls into system32. I've installed the game successfully again - incidentally it comes packaged with vcredist_x86.exe but if it's running, it's silent as I'm not even seeing a window pop up briefly. winver has been winxp through this test. Looks like the same output as before using winetricks win2k vcrun2005 (ditto sp1). mason@mason-desktop:~/c/Program Files/Aspyr/Guitar Hero III$ cd mason@mason-desktop:~$ rm -rf .wine mason@mason-desktop:~$ sh winetricks vcrun2005sp1 Could not load Mozilla.
