Installing Orcad

I am getting the following message when I launch the setup of OrCAD.

[quote]Archive: /media/5CFC92BDFC9290BE/Documents and Settings/Bhuved/Desktop/ORCAD_10 (D)/ORCAD_10 (D)/Setup.exe

End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not
a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the
latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on
the last disk(s) of this archive.

Can anybody tell me what this means? I recently downloaded the wine1.2 package.

Looks like a path problem to me. Instead of clicking on the file I
would put it in your wine prefix and execute it directly from the
terminal.

The FAQ can help with that if you do not understand my instruction.

If that does not work post the log on pastebin.com

I recently downloaded the wine1.2 package.

I would not use the "stable" 1.2 package and use the 1.3.X package
instead. Some distributions will call this a beta package.
