           Summary: Halo 2 Vista: Installer will not launch
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.1.15
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: anomalydetected at gmail.com


When attempting to launch the installer the game Halo 2 Vista, nothing much
happens. There is a window that briefly appears entitled "Microsoft Visual C++
Runtime Library", but it immediately closes and then nothing more happens.
Terminal output shows a flurry of FIXME's, a few ERR's, and finally ends with
an Unhandled Exception Error.
I am running Ubuntu 8.10 32-bit.
Compiled the latest git as of today (2/26/2009). Wine --version shows
wine-1.1.15-445-g5e0d4c7. GCC is version 4.3.2.
In winecfg, I set the Windows Version to "Windows Vista". (Note that the game
requires Windows Vista to play, but does not use any Vista-specific functions
such as DirectX10. In fact, there is a 3rd party application that allows this
exact game to run successfully under Windows XP. It is commonly believed that
Microsoft made the requirement of Vista purely to help push the OS.)
The command I am using to launch it is "wine /media/cdrom0/Startup.exe".
