Seems to be something else...  did you install anything else than BF1942?

I keep mine in a separate WINEPREFIX to avoid conflicts.

Can I suggest that you install under a clean WINEPREFIX by doing:

WINEPREFIX=/home/physics/wine-bf1942 wine /cdrom/Setup.exe

Follow the install as usual, then once it completes, install the patches the same way: WINEPREFIX=/home/physics/wine-bf1942 wine battlefield_1942_patch_v1.6.19.exe

and 

WINEPREFIX=/home/physics/wine-bf1942 wine bf1942_patch_v1.6_to_v1.61b.exe

Then you can cd ~/wine-bf1942/drive_c/Program\ Files/EA\ Games/Battlefield\ 1942/

WINEPREFIX=/home/physics/wine-bf1942 winecfg

do the detect drives again and

WINEPREFIX=/home/physics/wine-bf1942 BF1942.exe
