My problem is that I have installed the latest drivers for my Nvidia and Linux OS, that is, version 290.10 so there is no solution here, only wait to the next new drivers from Nvidia. By upgrading my graphics card I understand you mean to replace it by another new one, but it is not possible since this is a laptop... so Are there other possibilities to make it work? no patches can be done in wine for these type of graphic cards?

so I wouldn't expect an official fix for this.  

The bug report mentions two workarounds, a hacky patch that is over a year old and may not apply to current Wine, and building but not installing Wine 1.1.44 just for this game (run it from the build directory). The latter is definitely the safer way; just be aware that versions of Wine that old are no longer supported here, so if you run into problems, you are on your own.
