Thank you austin! And, by the way; I read in a playonlinux discussion that POP 2008 is thought not to be playable under wine with ati cards: do you know anything? And another little question: when I first install wine, does it need a certain configuration? I left everything how it was after the installation. The only thing I did was to copy all my windows XP "C:\Windows" files in the "drive_c/windows" directory of wine.
