I used winecfg and set up Windows 3.1 just to try something out. Now, nothing in Wine works. (Including winecfg) All I get is a message:
MSVCRT.DLL for Win32
Error: MSVCRT.DLL is not compatible with Win32s.

Is there some config file I can manually change it back to XP or 2000?

Thanks!

Edit: Really weird, actually Google Earth works... But not iexplore or Firefox win edition.

Seems to change here in ~/.wine/user.reg:


[Software\\Wine]
"Version"="****"


where **** is whatever windows version it emulates. Change it to win2k for example.

So is "win2k" the exact value for making it act like Windows 2000?

(There should be a comment with the various options in this file.)
