wine users - Mar 2010 - Noteworthy Composer error message - meaning please

I run Noteworthy Composer in Wine - it is the only thing I use Wine for. Mostly
it runs OK but there I get a few niggling problems from time to time. Recently I
ran the program from the terminal to try and get a handle on one of the
problems. The program seemed to run OK but when I shut down, I found the
following error message.


Code:
~$ wine c:\\Program\ Files\\Noteworthy\ Software\\NoteWorthy\ Composer\
2\\nwc2.exe
err:thunk:_loadthunk (NWMID95C.DLT, thunkobj_ThunkData16, NWMID95C.DLL): Unable
to load 'NWMID95C.DLT', error 2
fixme:advapi:DeregisterEventSource ((nil)) stub
~$



What does the "err:..." mean? and what steps do I need to take to try
and fix the problem?

TIA

The err is information for developers.

What is the problem, is there some part of the application that does not work? 
If not, you can ignore it.

This error can be safely ignored unless it is causing a problem with the
program running again.

Like jeffz stated:  What is the problem you experience while the program
is running?

This probably means that Wine is reporting the Windows version as Windows 95,
98, or ME, which causes NoteWorthy Composer to attempt to thunk to its 16-bit
MIDI sequencing engine. The error is harmless, but you can avoid it by changing
the OS version that NWC sees from Wine.

Problems have recurred. Noteworthy starts to load but then hangs so the error is
no longer harmless. Running from the terminal gives the same error message but
without the "fixme".

I forgot to say that I am running Ubuntu 9.04 currently.

I changed the Windows version in Wine to WinXP which is the version I use to run
it in Window but with no effect. NWC starts to load but then hangs with a blank
window.

It sounds like you have a new problem.

In addition, if you still get the error message about NWMID95C.DLT, then the
Windows version is definitely not being reported to NWC2 as Windows XP. The
NWMID95C.DLT module is only loaded by NWC2 when the OS indicates Windows 95, 98
or ME.

The error message has disappeared since I changed the Windows version to WinXP,
but NWC still does not load. However there is no error message when running from
the terminal.
