Additional Comments

This is my howto for wine 7.0.1

  1. create a 32bit wineprefix, for example: WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=/path/to/commandos winecfg
  2. select "Windows 95" as Windows version from winecfg gui
  3. during the installation, do not install "DIRECTX" nor "DXMEDIA"
  4. no "winetricks" needed, it works out-of-the-box

HowTo / Notes

HOWTO

Fix video playing:

  $ winetricks amstream quartz dsound

3. Run winecfg and set:

Movies and Sound

As others have pointed out you can get movies working by installing some DLL's.
To fix movies: winetricks amstream quartz

I needed only these two for movies.


The sound is a little crackly which I managed to fix installing dsound.

To fix sound: winetricks dsound

Enjoy :)

Please provide command which you type, and exact error message.

Which version of the Wine are you using and on which Linux Distribution?

Sorry my mistake. It's wine 1.8.2 on Devuan Jessie and the exact problem is a dialogue appears asking for "the next disk" (which it shouldn't be asking normally) and on specifying the right location it complains: The file "setup-1.bin" could not be located in Z:\media\cdrom\beyond_t (which is where the installer is located). Setting up the CD-ROM drive with winecfg doesn't help.

Command used is wine /media/cdrom/beyind_e/setup.exe (also typo'd this directory above, this is the correct one).
