I think it sets your card as 8300GS because that is the equivalent card from back when Prince Of Persia was out -- if it told the game you were using a card from over a decade in the future it would most definitely not know what to do.
I do wonder whether there is some way of telling WINE to report an even older card (say a 6000 series) and whether that would be the key to getting POP to recognize it.
i guess wine is made to recognize each hardware in it's own way i don't think their is any other way to tell wine to perform task you're saying unless until you're developer, recently i'd post this issue on appdb page hoping they may help.

Yes I've successfully re-installed the game without any registry tweak, graphics card is still Nvidia 8300GS but no problem at all, game work like a charm with OIL 4.1.1 & wine 1.2.3 on my debian wheezy.

Okay i marked it as solved

Because it may help me a lot for further experiments with wine & pol too
