But, how it happens that In a same system old wines works but the new
ones does not.

In the case of Latest Wine, when I remove all sym-links from the
dosdevices directory, except the "c", then it works.

I got the following before the crash. (My C drive is pointing to 
../drive_c)
----
trace:file:CreateFileW returning 0x44
