I have better luck on those types of things by copying the entire disc onto the drive in a folder and running it off there... but on some discs that still doesn't work because they have it hard coded to look for only an actual disc in the drive.

Wine still has some bugs in things like volume name handling.

The thing to do is to try the latest wine (currently 1.5.9), and if
it's still broken, file a bug listing what app you're testing,
what version of wine you tested with,
and we'll probably ask for a +volume log or something like that.
