Hi Zac, I'm back again with ongoing problems. I have successfully installed the 1.0-rc4 version of Wine according to your script. I have installed a simple Windows program (no .NET of anything like that) and the icon is in the menu and on the Desktop. However, when I try to launch it the "Eggtimer" rotates for a short while but then nothing else happens. How do I find out what has gone wrong? Thanks Stephen Carter PS - Do I need to change the subject heading?
