I'm running Wine 1.0.1, trying to get it to run various old programs: fractint, civ II, and most important: Pagemaker 6.5 . Even when I specify a graphics screen for the fractint, all I get on it is a text cursor which won't curse. Civ II installs nicely in the Wine "C" drive, but won't play --------------------------------------------------------- and the Pagemaker bombs out with a message: "can't find PM65.rsl" Is there a way to direct its attention to the proper directory, or a directory where I can expect the program to find it? ---------------------------------------------------------------- This message was sent using IMP, the Internet Messaging Program.

Almost any other version work. Try the latest wine. But before you go too far PM65 still has an open bug http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4836 which prevents printing pages with a background image. Paul R.
