Yes, my Win2000 Partition is with NTFS formated and Acrobat 5 is on NTFS 
installed, but Acrobat 4 i have on FAT installed and the hang with the 
same error. The Win2000-Partition is read-only mounted. Can this direct 
to th error?

The fake windows is not a own partition, it's just a directory e.g. in your
home directory. It's like a virtual c-drive for wine. So it would look like
home/fake_windows/Windows and Programs and Windows/System etc.
But the wine setup tool should already have made this for you. If not you
can still start it now, it's in wine/tools/wineinstall. And the wine config
needs to know this path.
