wine users - Apr 2008 - Software won't run in 0.9.58

Hi all !

I am trying to get Poker Academy Pro 2.5 to run in wine.
The demo can be downloaded here : 
http://www.poker-academy.com/poker-software/

It somewhat ran before (quite buggy, with windows disappearing behind 
the main one which was a fullscreen window), but I've had the very bad 
idea to upgrade to 0.9.58 and now it just hangs after displaying the 
splash screen.

I have read the FAQ and the user documentation, but I don't now where to 
start to find what is wrong. I tried different display settings as well 
as different windows versions, but nothing helped.

I see no real error in the console output. I avec an error about ALSA, 
but I think it's OK because I have the same 'hanging' problem on
another
config on which I have a sound device :

ALSA lib seq_hw.c:457:(snd_seq_hw_open) open /dev/snd/seq failed: Aucun 
fichier ou dossier de ce type
fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x6bcbfc,0x00000000), stub!
fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),1,0x6bcbfc,0x00000000), stub!

fixme:system:SystemParametersInfoW Unimplemented action: 8204 
(SPI_GETFONTSMOOTHINGCONTRAST)
fixme:font:WineEngCreateFontInstance Untranslated charset 255
-> that's where it stays, with processor usage to 0%...

What can I try next ?

Thanks a lot for your help !

What version last worked? Can you run a regression test?
http://wiki.winehq.org/RegressionTesting

Hi,

with wine 0.9.58 the default windows version changed from windows 2000 (or 98?)
to windows xp. Before running a regression test, test wether the application
runs with win98 or 2000.

I had a similar issue with endnote and ran a regression test (took me two
evenings) only to find that the version change caused my problems
