similar to: Installing Wordview with Winetools

Hi all, I've installed a program requiring the use of NVIDIA RIVA TNT2 Model 64/Model 64 Pro Display Driver. In spite of that, WineTools 2.0.8 and wine-20041201 did a great job in fully installing the program without pain, However, one critical component of the program needs the original NVIDIA driver so badly. How can I specify this driver in wine and/or Wintools, or elsewhere, when I have

Dear friends: Forgot to include three more data files: http://www.websher.net/tmp/user.reg http://www.websher.net/tmp/system.reg http://www.websher.net/tmp/userdef.reg Thank you again. Benjamin I've been trying for some time to install my copy of Word97 (which I own, having purchased it directly from Microsoft with my own license number). I have tried the latest Wine 0.9.14. To do

I've just installed wine 20011004 using tarball. Wordview and word seem to run nicely, but I cant save edited files. Word claims that the file already exists or that it is RO or that there is not enough memory and/or disk space. Anyone knows a solution to this?? Thanks in advance! - Vode

Dear friends: I have been trying to install MSOffice using Crossover. I have an old license from 2002, which entitled me to install the Crossover Plugin and the CrossoverOffice Set up. Support for them has expired, but both programs uinstalled fine into their own directory in KDE. But I do have a problem installing MSOffice.

Hi there, I just installed the latest wine release 1205 on SuSE7.1 with cups and for the first time printing works for me. I just added the afmdirs section like it says in the manual and now it works. GREAT!! Word view97 works just FINE, even with rtf files. Great. I have one little problem though. Ever since I added the [afmdirs], the umlauts (diphtongs) ??? and other special characters do

Dear friends: [Using Wine 20041019, the one recommended by WineTools 2.1.2] Using WineTools, I succeeded in installing ALL of the Windows files including IE 6, WMP 6.4, the MS core fonts, etc. etc. and all of the other system files. However, I have repeatedly failed to install MSWord 97 Viewer or Office 97. It's supposed to install but it fails every time. Would be happy just to have

I've downloaded and installed Microsoft's WordView to display .doc and .docx files using Wine. To convert them to .pdf files, I downloaded and installed cups-pdf so I can "print" .pdf files. "PDF" now appears as a printer in WordView running under Wine, but when I "print" to it, nothing shows up in Print Status. "PDF" also shows up in my other

Hello, we are on the way to relaunch winetools for 0.9. One problem remains unsolved: Whenever we start Word 2k, it states "Preparing installation..." and "Please wait till office completes the installation..". It does so and we have a working Word. But is it annoying that is done on every single start of Word. All other Office2k apps perform very well. Regards Joachim von

Dear friends: Thanks to Ekkehard, I found out how to launch Word97. I went to the .wine/drive_c directory and then (using quotes around "Program Files" and "Microsoft Office") I cd's to where Winword.exe was and then typed, within this subdirectory: wine WINWORD.EXE. That launched Word97 at last. But when I try to save a document, all I get is the first letter of the file

Dear friends: Using Centos 5. I have two physical drives. During install, I made sure to check hdb as well as hda. Both were listed as partitions (which is correct). But my fstab file does not show hdb. How do I make sure that hdb has been formatted and is part of my file system. If hdb is not formatted, how do I format it, please. Sorry for the question. I am a newbie. d[sher at localhost

When trying to install Microsoft Foundation Classes I find that winetools gets stuck on the mfc40.dll download. I can download mfc40.dll via my broswer, however. Where to stick this file, so that winetools can find it, and not need to download from dlldump.com? I'm on Ubuntu with the KDE desktop installed, if that matters. Thanks.

I tried installing IE6 using winetools, this failed for some reason. after several attempts i found IEs4linux, which installed IE5 and IE6 for me with no hassle, can i get winetools to recognise this install? because it won't let me install other software at the minute, or could someone give me a hand in getting winetools to work with the original IE6 setup? cheers!

After updating from, say winetools-2.10-jo to 2.11-jo (by rpm), I can't use the wt startup scripts like ie6, wmplayer etc. any longer, and I get an error message similar to "winetools hasn't been configured for this user. Run the base setup ..." But doing so would erase my ~/.wine directory and thus destroy my old setup including all my program installations, which of course

Hi, I've been messing with Wine and WineTools off and on for a couple of days now. In general I can certainly see the bright future out there, but so far it eludes me. I've used various versions of Wine successfully before, but with recent Wine I'm having little luck. I'm on an FC2 machine with a custom kernel but can switch to Gentoo if required. I've tried both
