open up /etc/wine.conf and configure it. Don't worry about the VXD/DLL section, just check the top stuff. If you are dual-booting a single-user Win98 system, the profile dir is c:\windows if it's multi-user (you're using "user-share-level") then its c:\windows\profiles\username, if you are using NT, it's c:\winnt\profiles\Admininistrator. Point the C: drive to where you mount your c drive (I put it in /mnt/c) point A: to /dev/fd0 or /dev/floppy (if you have it linked...) If this doesn't make any sense, email me, and I'll send you my wine.conf with some comments.
