similar to: Cant set C Drive

Ok, i'm terrible with computers, so i would like an explanation in simple terms. So I'm trying to play a game using Wine, I've installed the game, but when i click play, a box pops up that says "No CD-ROM drive found" I would like to know how to fix this problem.

I have installed P-CAD 2006 (Debian Squeeze 64 bit, wine 1.1.42) I had a problem with adding to it of network libraries (are allocated on serever Win2000): produces an error 5005: Could not open file: D:\MNT\MODUL.LIB. Either the file name is invalid, or there are no remanining directory entries. Please check the filename or delete some files in the directory. Thus libraries allocated locally are

I have a small Visual Basic app for a prom programmer which uses the parallel port (lpt1) to control the programmer. It uses a third party dll (io.dll) to give vb direct access to the hardware. I cannot get wine to see that port at all. I have given myself rw mode to /dev/parport0, there is a link (ln -s /dev/parport0 lpt1) in ~/me/.wine/dosdevices as described in the user notes. The app is a

I some how unmapped the C drive while trying to configure my cdrom drive to work with wine. Every time i try to do something wine related i get errors. Warning: the specified Windows directory L"c:\\windows" is not accessible. Warning: the specified System directory L"c:\\windows\\system32" is not accessible. Those are from use the winecfg command. When i click the audio tab

The system is FC5 and wine is the latest .17. There are two users configured on the system, A and B. They are configured to be as alike as possible. Diff of set output shows only the expected differences. Wine is built from CVS. winecfg is configured to the same profile with only the appropriate user path names changed. The problem is wine works well for one of the users and not well at all

I have Garmin's topo map software for the USA, 2008 version, and also a very old MapSource MetroGuide (ca. 1998) installed under wine. All is well -- except the biggest thing. Neither program can detect the etrex vista nor the rino 120, using Garmin's cables. The topo couldn't before I added the road maps,so that's not the trouble. Both, on the other (<shudder>

Just got Wine 1.1.13 on Ubuntu 8.10 tried to map D: to my Windows partition /dev/sda5 /media/DATA but Wine wouldn't keep my choice and reverts to /media/cdrom0. Found out that permissions for ~/.wine/dosdevices/d: were root only and couldn't change them. So I deleted d: & d:: and made new symbolic links $ sudo rm -r /home/me/.wine/dosdevices/d* $ ln -s /media/DATA

I was able to install Quicken 2005 and getting it started by installing through wine (wine install.exe) then copying the entire Windows directory over the wine directory. After this the program will start up and looks normal except a bunch of things don't work. One of these being able to connect to my bank through the internet. Should there be a link in dosdevices to eth0? If so what

I keep reading on this list where drive C: is referred to as "~/.wine/drive_c" but on my system (due to no special smarts on my part that would be "~/.wine/dosdevices/c:" instead. Why this difference? Are the ones who post basing their operation on an older way of doing things? The ability to use "c:" rather than "drive_c" seems nicer IMNSHO. FWIW,

Hello, I am trying to messenger working, and so have read up the page on it. I installed DCOM98 and set DLL overrides in wine config. So i proceeded to install IE6. Just opening the file would show me the window, and i click accept and next. it immediately hangs and eventually exits.

:D Hi, I installed wine on ubuntu 10.10 to run a windows program as reported here (http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=22133&iTestingId=59338). After few trails I decided to reinstall Wine (now version 1.3.8 ), to configure it as instructed by the guide, and than to install again the windows application, Birthday Reminder. At present the application doesn't

I recently upgraded to FC6, well, I actually did a clean reinstall. Anyway I did a yum install wine as root and it went through with no errors. I tried to run dropbook and it draws the window and some times the controls but it doesn't respond to mouse clicks except for the close button to which I get the not responding dialog with the force quit option which I choose. dropbook did run under

Can anybody please tell me how to access the floppy disk drive from wine-installed programs? I've installed some basic accounting software which backs-up to floppy (don't laugh!), but when I try to do this I get the message "no removable drives..." even though I've mounted the floppy drive. The CDROM (fake d:) drive is listed in dosdevices, but floppy (fake a: ?) doesn't

Very Dumb Question here -- basically, am I in trouble? Or in other words, I have to ask myself a Falstaffian question: "Which .wine, Bezonian?" Let me expound. On several lists for different parts of the problem, according to their interest and my best judgment, I've been pursuing the topic of GPS/topo map settings, under Crossover Office Pro 5.0.1 (CXO) using Fedora Core 4, trying

i couldnt figue out how to get wine to install normally after download, so i had to download the source and do it that way. I followed the directions in the read me that came with it, but all I can ever get to is the "make" direction. After it's done with that, it says to do "wine install" in the read me. When I type that in and try it, it says it is an invalid operation.

In Suse 9.2, it was easy to softlink to a drive from /home/username/.wine/dosdevices because the mount point for the drive was always the same. That is, /media/dvdrecorder was always where the disc would get mounted. NOW, with Suse 9.3, the mount point is /media/DISC_NAME. Since each disk has a different name, there is never a consistent mount point. So, I can't make Wine's

This patch updates the guestfs_inspect_get_drive_mappings API call to also return drive letters for GPT paritions. Previously this worked only for MBR partitions. This is achieved by matching the GPT partition GUID with the info stored in the blob from HKLM\SYSTEM\MountedDevices\DosDevices keys. For GPT partions this blob contains a "DMIO:ID:" prefix followed by a 16 byte binary GUID.

Hello, I am running the version of Wine that came with Ubuntu 9.04. I would like to have a permanent, or static, drive mapping to a second internal hard drive (/media/disk). I go into the GUI of Wine Configuration to create the mapping, but it is not static. I download larger files to that drive as to not clutter my main hard drive. Ubuntu always mounts the drive upon boot, but no matter what

Hi all! I've tried for three hours to find where winecfg keeps the path of the fake drives; oppositely to what the documentation says, is not in the registry. Can please someone help me? (i need to create a fake drive just for an application and then remove it; i could do it with a bash script if i find the config file for that...) Cheers, Stefano
