You should stick to one problem per thread, and you haven't posted  enough information  to help you with either. Let's start with the basics: what version of Wine, what graphics card and driver?  If you're not using the latest development release of Wine, upgrade. 

Steam has a very detailed howto in the AppDB. Have you read it and followed all the steps? http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=19444
