i am in the proper directory when i run that. wine version 1.2.2
there is no terminal output. nothing happens, after i hit enter, the command goes through, it takes a few seconds, then the terminal goes back to Code: bobby at localhost ~ $ version is 1.1.22

Do you have wine installed? Try: $ ls -a *.exe $ which -a wine $ wine --version $ wine notepad -- -Austin
austin, i have pasted the exact command a few posts ago. i have also given the wine version i am using. the same wine application allows me to open other window native programs (ventrilo and world of warcraft come to mind) on the same machine. i do not understand why it wont give any sign of life on the 2 applications i mentioned in my original post.
thank you, this worked: Code: bobby at localhost ~ $ cd "/home/bobby/Desktop/Downloads/Perfect World International" bobby at localhost ~/Desktop/Downloads/Perfect World International $ wine "/home/bobby/Desktop/Downloads/Perfect World International/install.exe"
