I installed wine flawlessly without any problems so far. IT's amazing how people make tuts easy these days :) but I can't seem to find any tut on how to install a game using a Backup CD. I can't figure out how to make the autorun screen pop up. Any ideas :confused:

I'm not sure what you mean by backup CD. I assume if you're waiting for autorun, thats theres a setup.exe somewhere. Navigate to you CDROM drive and try to run it (if your drive path is different, replace this one with it):


cd "/media/cdrom0"
wine setup.exe


If it is a multidisk installer, you may have to open up a new terminal and type wine eject to get it to eject the CD.
