Hello there, Santa went to me with a nice Sony "Hi-MD" and fortunatly the Company did it right to retain my anger alive against all those dickheads: Windows-only sw suite. Oh, yes ! i can still use it: audio recording (thanks!) to leverage quality at best, and tracks and groups renaming by hand on the MD itself using the jog-shuttle... soooo nice ! Well, to make the story short, i'm not gonna make some room to host that M$ thing aside BSD on my laptop, so here i am with faith and power to make it happen with Wine ! On topic now: After a few seconds worth "preparing the installblablabla...", the program crashes with the following logs (nothing special done yet, only basic logging settings from Wine): %wine Setup.exe fixme:file:get_default_drive_device auto detection of DOS devices not supported on this platform fixme:ntdll:NtQueryVolumeInformationFile device info not properly supported on this platform err:heap:HEAP_CreateSystemHeap system heap base address 0x80000000 not available fixme:ntdll:NtQueryVolumeInformationFile device info not properly supported on this platform err:heap:HEAP_CreateSystemHeap system heap base address 0x80000000 not available wine: Unhandled exception (thread 000d), starting debugger... fixme:ntdll:NtQueryVolumeInformationFile device info not properly supported on this platform err:heap:HEAP_CreateSystemHeap system heap base address 0x80000000 not available WineDbg starting on pid 0xc Couldn't initiate DbgHelp Unhandled exception: page fault on read access to 0x004202f4 in 32-bit code (0x0040664d). file_set_error: Bad address file_set_error: Bad address In 32 bit mode.

I'm confident a knowleagable wine hacker will recognize a pattern in it and point me in the right direction. I refreshed a bit that app status on CodeWeavers' appdb: those interested might note that i plegged a 100$ on it. If someone could help me make it runnable and usable, i'd gladly give this money to him/her instead. Thanks in advance, Francis. (please CC: me in your replies)
