Please list the complete fstab file and the full output
of wineconf - you cut the interesting part.

the windows=d: line is wrong: it is the path to the windows
*directory*, not the windows partition; you should set it to
"windows"="d:\windows"

The rest seems correct and Wine should find dlls; to find what
happens, run with -debugmsg +module,+dosfs,+file - from the
traces you will be able to figure out where Wine is trying to
find the application dlls.
