Are you certain it won't work in wine? Before you bust a gut to get Windows working in a Virtual Machine try installing the wine PPA (http://www.winehq.org/download/deb). This will provide you with the latest RC (wine 1.2-rc2), which is much better than the default 1.1.x that is provided with 10.04 out of the box.
