Backtrace that was saved right after receiving error.

I have tried to install The Sims 3 about 10-12 times on 5 different Linux
distros. The error is the same. I'm not using Ubuntu as my main distro and it
just won't install!!! I paid close to $100 for the game and two expansion packs
and I REALLY don't want my money going to waste :( Please help!

Not a blocker, read http://bugs.winehq.org/page.cgi?id=fields.html#importance

PlayOnLinux is not supported here, please update to plain wine 1.7 (or at least
1.6) and try again. If the problem persists get a log:

You wine version is so old. Even playing with POL you should get newer wine...

This bug is actually duplicate of

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31266

which uses an old wine version too.
