Besides your video issue, why would you need other *.exe hardware drivers installed?

What video card make and model do you have, and what game are you trying to run?

Post by: Jerry on September 24, 2016, 12:29:26 AM: That game isn't native to Linux so it won't ever work the same way as it does on Windows. Have a read through the Winde DB for more info on this game - https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=23695 (https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=23695) as you can see the current Rating is 'Garbage'

What video card make and model do you have, and what amusement would you say you are attempting to run?
