The test results you have selected are very old and may not represent the current state of Wine.
Selected Test Results (selected in 'Test Results' table below)
What works
(Almost) everything; joypad support, loading a game, changing settings.
What does not
Fullscreen mode; frontend will load correctly but loading a game image causes the program to hang during the loading process.
Requires Visual C runtime libraries (installed using winetricks - vcrun2005) and the latest Directx9 runtime libraries (also installed using winetricks)
What was not tested
loading a game from CD, loading any image other than "Cosmic Smash"
Additional Comments
Requires a valid dreamcast bios image to run. Nulldc100 beta 1.6 is widely available from emulation website but cannot be found on the nulldc site as newer (less compatible) versions have superceded it.

How to run nullDC 1.0.4
by Mahen on Monday February 11th 2013, 5:15
As I'm unable to get keyboard input to work in NullDC 1.0.0b6, I tried to get version 1.0.4 to work.
Thanks to the following bugreport : bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=32932 I figured out a native D3DCompiler_43.dll enabled to run those latest nullDC versions.
However, emulation is extremely slow. (compared to the performance reached in 1.0.0b6).
can't load with CD or without

After I tried to run the gdi image, or just run dreamcast without CD, nullDC window close and in terminal this appears:

Confirm that games run fine under wine 1.2
by Giles on Wednesday September 29th 2010, 8:45
So long as install instructions detailed above are followed, games run fine under this wine version, however, consider a running the previous beta version nulldc100_b6, as it has joypad support (which this version lacks) and greater compatibility with Dreamcast games.
