Thanks for your reply/help.
Strangely, I found within a few minutes of posting the email that the
problem was with the links placed within the dosdevices folder.
All of the links were pointing to drive_c. Whereas winetools made
fake_windows.
But fixing the problem is easier said than done. I can change to
drive_c, but i am now having trouble producing the right links within
wine.conf.
Oh well, enough said.
