Nope. We need more information to help you.

What command(s) are you trying to run in cmd?

Does cmd give you a prompt?

How about a debug log.

Ah, the forum failed us. I see he linked to

https://picasaweb.google.com/1049729649 ... 8964078610

now, which shows that he double-clicked on something in the desktop
and a file archiver opened and tried to load cmd as an archive.

Plus, he was running as root.

So, the advice:
1) don't ever run wine as root
2) try running from the commandline for now rather from the gui
and let us know if that works better

What version Linux? What version Wine?

I'm trying to run a program using the cmd.

2. After extracting there will be 2 folders created:

C:\PHONE21
C:\\MASTER\

3. Go to C:\PHONE21
4. Call “PHONE21.EXE”

this is where i extract the .zip and put it in /root/home/phone21

it is a .exe file so im having trouble running it on linux.
my aim is to run it smoothly in linux.
here is the pix that i will type on the cmd

and if it will successfully run it will be like this

So, the advice:
1) don't ever run wine as root
2) try running from the commandline for now rather from the gui
and let us know if that works better

What version Linux? What version Wine?

DO NOT RUN WINE AS ROOT! I am the second person to tell you this. Please
run it as a 'regular' user.

The Wine FAQ at
http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#head-96bebfa ... 78b0d41014
has a good explanation why you should not run Wine as a privileged user.

We don't go looking at 'pretty pictures' We need a logging file per the
instructions at http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log. BTW, I cannot view
your pictures so they are useless to me.

I would try dosbox. That should be available on many (if not all)
linux distributions and also OSX.

As for how to install it on your distribution I bet you are not using
my distro so I will leave that up to others who have more experience
with whatever distribution you are using.
