Usable? Runnable maybe, but not properly installed. The installer adds
registry entries (required for patches) *after* the start menu entries,
not before... this has been discussed before. So make sure the start menu
entries are installed (create start menu\programs directories under your
windows dir, install registry from winedefault.reg if it's not already
done, everything).
