You'll have to build from source, and many things don't work yet. But very simple apps do. You can try it, but odds are you'll be out of luck for a while. -- -Austin
Austin, Thanks for your prompt response. I tried to run MyApp.exe(64 bit one) using wine-1.1.16 and got the following error: ............................................................................................ Trying to load PE image for unsupported architecture (AMD-64) wine: could not load L"Z:\\MyApp.exe": Bad EXE format for MyApp.exe:PE32+ executable for MS Windpws (console). ............................................................................................ Is there any specific param related to 64 bit to be passed while configuring the wine or can it be configured as usual? Thanks, Yug

After configuring with the option --enable-win64 and building the wine, when I tried to install the vcredist_x64.exe using winetricks(which is required to run windows exe),am getting the following error: ............................................................................................ Trying to load PE image for unsupported architecture (I386) Trying to load PE image for unsupported architecture (I386) Note: command 'wine /home/user/vcrun2005sp1/vcredist_x64.exe' returned status 193. Aborting. ................................................................................................. I request to help me what is missing to run the above: Thanks, Yug

Am trying to install vcredist_x64.exe which is an installer for 64 bit.

I had download the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x64) from MS website but when I check the file format for the same, it is displaying as follows: vcredist_x64.exe: PE32 executable for MS windows (GUI) Intel 80386 32-bit. I dont understand why 64 bit exe is showing as above.
