[solved]i am having problems with wine!!

hi,

basically i cant acces the mount manager in winecfg! I get the following error;

err:winecfg:open_mountmgr failed to open mount manager err 2

basically the story how this problem arose. I havent used wine or had it insatalled for a very long time! however, i wanted to give gta4 a go! i installed wine, and winecfg worked fine, so i added an extra drive to the mount manager! then tried to install gta4, it said my system wasnt suitable, then noticed a brand new version of wine was available, so upgraded! great installed gta4, all.

then i hit lots of problems! messed around till i broke the whole of wine! so i thut right, ill start again. removed gta4 & wine fully from my system, then reinstalled wine, but now i get the above error in winecfg, so i cant set a new drive!!!

any ideas?

Did you make sure you removed winecfg from /usr/bin before reinstalling?
