I just researched the Applications Database and it looks like this game 
is rated Garbage.  However, it does install.

There is one bug report for this game:  
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24856
However this has nothing to do with not being able to 'start' DirectX

Can you create a logging file and post it to a site like pastebin.com:  
http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ for us please?  Post only the URL to the pastie.

Thank you.

James
