+ 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...
