Hi Austin,
After reinstalling completly from cdrom, whithout any problem and launching
directly from the directory I still encounters the same crash...

1. Launching from directory after installation
user1 at MyPC:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Sierra/Caesar IV$ wine ./CaesarIV.exe
==> winedbg: Internal crash at 0x7ed2b5ea


2. Launching from directory after renaming .exe as "Caesar IV" as suggested by
David Holm :
user1 at MyPC:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Sierra/Caesar IV$ wine ./Caesar\
IV.exe
==> winedbg: Internal crash at 0x7ed2b5ea

3. Launching directly from D:/, as you suggested on 2013-01-16
user1 at MyPC:~$ wine start D:/CaesarIV.exe
==> wine: Unhandled exception 0x40000015 in thread 25 at address 0x6b0609
(thread 0025), starting debugger...


4. Launching using Autorun.exe  :
user1 at MyPC:~$ wine start D:/Autorun.exe
==> wine: Unhandled exception 0xc000000d in thread 25 at address
0xf75c0023:0x004065b5 (thread 0025), starting debugger...

5. Launching CaesarIV Demo as suggested by GyB :
user1 at MyPC:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Sierra/Caesar IV Demo$ wine
./CaesarIVDemo.exe 
==>  winedbg: Internal crash at 0x7ed225ea


During this last attempt, a message box appears with the following message :
"Unable to register COM interop. Message : the requested feature is not
implemented".

At the same time, the following message appears in the console :

"err:rpc:I_RpcGetBuffer no binding
fixme:ole:CoInitializeSecurity ((nil),-1,(nil),(nil),0,3,(nil),0,(nil)) - stub!

err:ole:CoInitializeEx Attempt to change threading model of this apartment from
multi-threaded to apartment threaded

fixme:ole:CoCreateInstance no instance created for interface
{00000000-0000-0000-c000-000000000046} of class
{45224aff-d811-4fc2-adb2-645cea444135}, hres is 0x80131044"

And after leads to the "internal crash"

Notice that exactly the same error message sequence appears using the demo and
the retail version.

Thank you in advance for your help
