CD Install freezes

Post by asboans »

I'm trying to install Zoo Tycoon from its original CD Rom using Wine on OS X 10.7.5. I run the setup file using the command wine setup.exe, and the installer launches fine, and I see this:

Then when I get to this screen, and click 'Next' the installer freezes:

Looking at my activity monitor I can see that the process wine.bin is running (with quite a lot of cpu), and nothing else happens.

Any ideas on what the problem might be?

A lot of CDs have DRM on it, which prevents it from being copied or otherwise distributed illegally. This currently does not play well with wine. It happens to a ton of CD installations. Sorry...
