One easy way of improving compatibility with copy protections without
any source code is to make all drives visible to wine applications
appear to be SCSI. The main copy protections don't "work" on SCSI
drives so the games are allowed to run unchecked. I'm not sure how
hard this would be to setup in wine at the moment though.
