Wine 0.9.38 (git) - I forgot to mention it.  When I filed this bug this version
wasn't available on the version pull-down.

Since your comment #11 on Bug #8411 only addressed the SafeDisc issue I guessed
at the settings based on other bugs I've filed.  If it doesn't suffice then
indicate which options are required and I will simply generate another one.

Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty)
Linux version 2.6.20-16-generic (Celeron 2.93GHz)
Nvidia GeForce 6600GT with 1.0-9631 driver
According to Protection ID 5.2c it's SafeDisc v1.50.020
Game was installed from original CDs and updated with v3.0 patch from
http://www.microsoft.com/games/pc/mechwarrior4.aspx
Install and update completed without problems.  Original executable file MW4.exe
(SafeDisc loader/decrypter for MW4.icd) was replaced with decrypted MW4.exe
extracted (unwrapped) from MW4.icd by UnSafeDisc v1.5.5 from an install on
Win98SE. Unwrapped version tested successfully with MW4:V install on Win98SE. 
On Wine, original MW4.exe fails due to SafeDisc.  The unwrapped version fails
when it opens a window and before the splash screen is displayed.

export WINEDEBUG=+seh,+tid,+relay
wine MW4.exe 2>MW4pr3_unwrapped_debug.log

I guessed at the component based on the symptoms and the messages showing up in
the terminal at the time of the crash (without WINEDEBUG set) .  I'm not a
developer and the "Exception" in the log isn't really informative to me.  On
other sites that use Bugzilla they often recommend making an educated guess at
the component on the assumption that the developers or their support staff will
verify it and change it if necessary.  The bug reporting guidelines
(http://wiki.winehq.org/Bugs) do not mention "component" anywhere.  Should I
file a bug against the page regarding the omission?
