Well, I installed it, and tried it out. The two games I play from
that machine still don't run, but now the error's are shorter. It
simply says that it cannot find wine.c. I removed the original wine,
as trying to install the codeweavers one told my there were
conflicts, and put the codeweaver one it it's place. 

At this point the bigger priority is figuring out why nothing I do
makes partition changes stick. I have tried in Win 98(Partition
Magic) and Linux(parted) and neither can make the changes that it
says are successful stick after any amount of troubleshooting. When
that works, then I might have more interest in trying to get Windows
taken away, and making the machine Linux only.
