+ i believe this to be a problem with the installer itself...  the programs you 
+ are trying to install are using ms windows installers (extracts from a .msi 
+ file) and the installer's name is instmsia.exe:
+ 
+ fixme:module:CreateProcessA (D:\QuickCam\instmsia.exe,...): 
+  NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS ignored
+  fixme:module:CreateProcessA (X:\IXP000.TMP\msiinst.exe,...): 
+  NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS ignored
+  fixme:module:CreateProcessA (MsiExec.exe,...): NORMAL_PRIORITY_CLASS 
+  ignored
+  fixme:module:CreateProcessA (MsiExec.exe,...): STARTF_FORCEONFEEDBACK 
+  ignored
+ 
+ unfortunately, as of right now ms installers only work with limited success and 
+ even then not all of them work...  one thing you can try though is this:
+ 
+ stick the cd in the cd drive.
+ open up a console (terminal, shell, xterm, whatever)
+ unmount the cd, type umount /path/to/cdrom
+  where /path/to/cdrom is the actual path to it
+ now remount it like this..
+  mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom -o unhide 
+   or
+  mount -o unhide /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
+ 
+ then try running the installer again...
+ if that doesn't work, then your installer is not currently supported by regular 
+ wine, try crossover office, i know that one has much better support for those 
+ kind of installers...
+ 
+ hope this helps

+ 
+ P.S. another thing you might want to try is running wine Setup.exe instead of 
+ wine Setup...not sure how that might affect it but you never know...
