Problems with World of Warcraft

Post by Spenged »

I am running openSUSE on a 8800GT (if that's relevant).

I am trying to run WoW off my Windows NTFS partition, I have installed NTFS-CONFIG and NTFS-3G and I have full read/write access to the drive.

When I type wine wow.exe -opengl it returns with:


Code: Select all

err:module:attach_process_dlls "DivxDecoder.dll" failed to initialize, aborting
err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"Z:\\windows\\C\\LOG\\World of Warcraft\\wow.exe" failed, status c0000005

Any ideas? :S

Thanks...

Quoted from openSUSE where I have also asked. I have read into this on google and other forums and I still haven't found a solution.

Any guidance would be very appreciated! :)

Don't do this. See the FAQ.

Don't run it from NTFS partition. Install it / copy it to your Linunx fs.
