--- Comment #7 from Paul Gofman gofmanp@gmail.com --- Yes, it is probably safedisk v1, and it fails to start its service at the first place. I think safedisk v1 was previously working fine with some other games, so there might be some specific issue.
1. Did you setup went well? You mentioned '... but running from CD gets pass the " Please insert the correct CD"...', but I am not sure I understood this. Could you please elaborate on which problem did you have, how did you solve it and how do you install / run the game? If it does not install with this message, can you look at the block device from which CD is mounted (/dev/cdrom, or /dev/loopX for ISO image: you can see that from 'mount' output), and check if your user has read access to it? If it does not, you should be able to grant that with root. Without the read access to block device Wine does not report volume name and serial to the application, this can maybe help to install game correctly.
2. You are probably running this on 64 bit prefix. Can you try that on 32 bit one? (WINEARCH=win32 during prefix creation).
3. With 32 bit prefix and after making sure that setup is OK and if it still does not work, can you please provide the following log (from vanilla Wine, not Staging): WINEDEBUG=+seh,+relay,+virtual,+loaddll,+service,+ntoskrnl,+winedevice
