STOP THERE!!

You really need to read the Wine WIKI pages (http://wiki.winehq.org/) before even using Wine. Wine is basically compatibility layer between Windows programs and native Linux drivers (and user-space applications). The Wine layer will translate DirectX calls, to a virtualised Windows API, into native Linux OpenGL calls to your native Linux ATI driver... The Wine layer does not support the installation of any low-level Windows drivers.

Battlefield 2 isn't a walk in the park to get working in Wine - so you probably want to do some background reading first...  8)
