I've been trying to install LinuxMint 14.1 and Wine on a Dell laptop.
Took me a week of on and off effort to realize that the real instructions
were in the fine print. Despite that, I did manage to get them both
installed.
Now I'm having all sorts of trouble installing a Windows application.
I've tried twice, using the applications setup.exe file. It goes through
all of the proper setup stages, asking for this and that plus the serial
number. When it's done, there isn't a single item loaded on the hard drive
and the icon in the program list diappears when you click on it.
Reading the instructions in the Wine user guide, page 8 has what seems
to three or four different methods for installing Windows applications, and
those instructions are just a bit cryptic. After two tries, I know that the
first one of just using the setup.exe file does not work.
So, how do you install a Windows application on a machine with LinuxMint
and Wine installed when the application has a setup.exe file?
