Can you describe better what command does not work? For example you CD into the
game directory and do a wine <game> and it does not start? Write the full
command lines used, please.

I have a C: for all hard disk, a G: that have a attach of ISO CD. I install
without problem from CD, only have problem for execute the game.

$ ./wine .wine/drive_c/***/gta_sa.exe

With this not execute the game. If have a active desktop show the desktop and
can't show the game (if later enter in the game show a error like if having the
game in the memory). If have a off desktop, nothing show, nothing appear in the
terminal.
Both method (with/without desktop) the wine can't execute the game and can't
exit.

The title should contain the game name for better search results. Most likely
the real issue here is copy protection of the game.

Please change to the game directory before trying to start it, like:

cd .wine/drive_c/***/
wine gta_sa.exe
