hi guys. i have recently installed wine in my red hat 8, and i was trying to run an old pc game. because i have win2k installed in my other disk drive and it doesn't work with anything newer than win98. i was wandering if any of you could play it with wine, becuase when i try to play it the debug console appears. it hangs in a call to the MSVCRT DLL trying to access 0xdeadbeef adress. any help will be appreciated. _________________________________________________________________ STOP MORE SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail

Open your wine config file (It's in your home/.wine/config) find the [DllOverrides] section, and add this line "msvcrt" = "native, builtin, so" and remove "msvcrt" = "builtin, native, so" if it's present. If you're using your real windows installation to run wine, try running the game again, if you're using a fake windows installation copy msvcrt.dll from your windows system directory to fake_c:\windows\system and run the game again.
