Summary: Installer says "this is not a valid copy of Pinball Mania" Product: Wine Version: 1.2-rc6 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: markk@clara.co.uk
This bug applies to Pinball Mania for Windows by 21st Century Entertainment. I tested with the version on a Softkey compilation CD-ROM, "Entertainment Pack Volume III".
In Wine, on running setup.exe a couple of dialog boxes appear, one to confirm the destination drive, the second to confirm the amount of free space. On dismissing those, a third dialog box appears, saying "This is not a valid copy of Pinball Mania!". After showing another dialog box the installer exits.
The CD-ROM is very unlikely to be copy-protected.
The only console output (which appears before the first dialog box, so is probably not relevant) is: err:ddeml:WDML_CreateString Unknown code page 850 err:int21:INT21_Ioctl_Block int21: unknown/not implemented parameters: int21: AX 440d, BX 0003, CX 0873, DX 0000, SI 0000, DI 0106, DS 1001, ES 1001
