------- Additional Comments From xerox_xerox2000@yahoo.co.uk 2006-31-03 13:01 ------- using winecfg to set msvcrt to native should work just fine as well, Just add the application first under "application" and then under "libraries" set the override for msvcrt to native; that should work just fine. Do you still run into the same trouble after doing so? About the fonts, it might be a good idea to look in ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/fonts and just move away the fonts present there. Maybe it helps.
