"IOPL not enabled" error trying to run Wine

Hi all-

I just installed Wine 0.9.2-1 on my Fedora Core 4 (2.6.17-1.2139 kernel) dual-booting laptop, and when I try to run excel.exe or winword.exe from the XP partition, I get a little error window that says "IOPL not enabled" and when the window is killed, my terminal says:

fixme:actctx:QueryActCtxW stub!

...I've googled around looking for some answers (or at least some info), and I can't seem to find anything too terribly helpful...has anyone else run into this problem?

Any ideas/suggestions? I'd really like to get Wine working, so I never have to use windoze again! :)

Cheers!

*ahem*

I'll post any debug info anyone wants...

Did you solve your problem in the meantime?

In my case it may have to do with the original windows actually not working properly,
or/and I not using wine correctly.

wine "IOPL not enabled"

If you have the urlmon dll override active in the Libraries section - remove it (worked for me).
