Attack on Pearl Harbor will not run

Post by jerrynewt »

First time to post here and not very familiar with wine. My grandson downloaded the demo for Attack on Pearl Harbor and after download finished I upgraded to the latest wine1.3. I right clicked on the desktop icon, went to permissions and marked for executable. When I left click on desktop icon the screen resolution drops from 1600x900 to 1200x768 and the screen goes white with occasional black and red irregular shaped boxes--no mouse pointer--and that is all it does. Just wondering if I need to install any special dll's or anything else. Any help would be appreciated.

Can you run the program from a terminal (http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#run_from_terminal) and provide a logging file (http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log). If the terminal output is more than a screen or two in length, please upload the log file to a site like pastebin.com and provide the entire URL as returned by the service here.
