Hi all,

After emerging wine, I would like to play windows games on my Linux OS yust like you guys. Or yust running some stupid windows apps like Photoshop. Not because Gimp is bad, but because I'd yust like to try

Now, I'm quite noobisch if it comes to emulation and OS-es. I tried looking in the FAQ/guide/docs on www.winehq.com but I don't get it at all. Could someone give me a short guide or yust a link how to setup your wine to play games correctly?
Do you need to have a Windows version installed on your HDD? Is WinXP / NTFS supported? How do you configure wine and how do you start or use it? I tried some things but none of them worked correctly... Actually, I don't know at all how to start

Could someone help me?
Thanks a lot!!
