As for "wine" in itself, it has very little compatibility with windows games and applications.
CrossOver IS WINE....

Aman,

Download the ISO from the following link.
http://sourceforge.net/projects/gparted/files/#close

and burn it to a CD as an image.
http://www.linux.com/news/software/a...nd-iso-burning
See topic "Burning images" in that link.

Then when you restart the computer insert the CD and follow the instructions.

EDIT
And read the following tutorial too:
