According to the test results on AppDB, this game probably never worked in Wine, yet, no one has reported the problem here. The problem can be reproduced with the demo version as well, so I decided to file a bug report.
The game starts with a couple of intro videos, then comes a black screen with a greyish loading bar at the bottom and the game freezes there. Wineserver and secondsight.exe together are consuming 100% CPU power, so something is happening 'under the hood', but the game never finishes loading.
Steps to reproduce the problem with the demo version: 1. create a new wineprefix 2. winetricks ie6 3. start the installed demo with secondsight.exe. In the launcher click <Start Free Trial>, wait for the videos to end...the game is hanging with a black screen after the videos.
