Could you post a screenshot to show what it looks like?
Also, if you're having trouble with wine, and if you don't mind reinstalling the Windows programs you were using, you can always delete the .wine folder in your home directory and type winecfg in the terminal to start from a clean slate.

Sounds like a video hardware/driver issue.
I've seen this same thing numerous times, perhaps if you give more detail about your hardware someone will be able to offer you suggestions.

Reinstalling wine won't delete the .wine directory. If you want to do that, you have to press Ctrl+H in your home folder and scroll down to .wine and delete it (or rm -rf .wine)
If it's a hardware issue then removing the .wine and running winecfg won't do anything, but it'll get that option out of the way. =)
