warcraft3 (using wine)doesn't run on linux


When i run the game it only runs the menu,but when it is loading to play, the bar stops at half and send me to the desk, changing too the graphical environment from 1024x768 to 800x600.
I use an IBM ThinkPad t23,pentium 3 processor, 1.3Ghz, 256mb of RAM.
the operating system is Lubuntu 10.11 and the graphical environment is openbox.
I use wine to run the program.

Run it from X terminal by: "wine /path/to/game.exe" and after error read what was writed on console. On WINE database this game is shown as working. Also write which version of wine you have.
