When I try to fire up the game it gives me an error saying I need 20megs of free HD space - and given that I have 480 gigs of storage, thats not an issue.  Do I need to allocate Wine some extra space somehow?

Might be an overflow...What directory are you installing to? How much
free space is on that device? Can you try a different file system (a
flash drive maybe)?.
