Thanks, I found the November Wine at source forge and it installed without a problem. It even includes winesetuptk, so configuring went pretty smooth. I even installed TopStyle and got it running quite easily. I'm not at my own PC at the moment, but I will send another message later explaining what I did to get it working, so others can benefit from it. Bye, Marco
