Question Short question about wine


Hi,

i just installed wine.. and i have on my other partition windows 2003...
now i read a tutorial about windows programs and wine..
they told to just mount my ntfs partition and use wine on it (so /mnt/windows is the c: on wine)

when i tried to run some programs like adobe photoshop CS , dreamweaver etc...
it said some errors with the biggest error of al could not write...

so my question is, if i can manige my windows XP install under fat32..
will i be able to run those applications?
or will they still crash...?

the main question of this is for macromedia: dreamweaver mx 2005, Flash mx 2005, fireworks mx 2005
Adobe: Photoshop CS (8.0), ImageReady CS (8.0)
Emule,
Halflife 2: CounterStrike source (with Steam App)

those are all the programs that i need on my computer (Counter-Strike Source is not really needed but preferred the other programs is what i really need since my job is Graphic Designer)

Can anybody help me out?

Regards,
Fatum

wine is simply a layer of dll's and other files that are included in windows that windows apps need to run. I use wine and i do not put it on a NTFS partition, i have never heard that. Remember that wine will not run all or even most programs, especialy the more complicated ones like video games.
