Xorg, Nvidia problem

I use latest Xorg 7.4 and Xorg-server 1.5.3-4 with Nvidia 173.14.12-1 (FX5200gpu) and i have few problems...
1) Screen color depth is 16, i know for sure that monitor supports 32bit color. I had to force this setting to 24bit i xorg.conf to make it look nice.
2) I have this strange error when i try to run wine app, i googled it and there is nothing like that on internet.

fixme:win:EnumDisplayDeviceW ((null),0,0x32f348,0x00000000), stub!

I know this is has something to do with drivers. My friend told me, he is a developer.
Precisely:

It is win32 api function to list and report grafical devices in unicode

And we agreed that wine is not friendly with my GPU drivers.

Could it be that my kernel/xorg/nvidia are incompatible?

Well this shouldnt be a problem of your driver or whatever. Its more that WINE is still being developed.
The important thing is does the app you are trying to run work? Which app is it? Is it in appdb.winehq.org ?

Re: Xorg, Nvidia problem

App is CallOfDuty2 it is in appdb as long as I know wine. It is platinum. Look at my post on multimedia forum, i had some problems with wine and CoD2 on my laptop, and i solved them. This is on my old pc
