I recently installed ubuntu to my computer.  I am now having mega problems installing other programs.  I had a game from wild tangent called fate.  I have a backup disk and a path for installation  but when I try to install it I get an error message from the archive.  I am trying to install through wine and or llinux but I still get this same error message it starts out as 
home/tricia/.wine/dosdevices/c:/windows/profile/tricia/desktop/fate_installer/_.exe/end-of-central-directory/signature not found.either this file is not a zipfile or if constitutes one disk of a multi-port archive.   It continues on with some other stuff and repeats it's self a coupule of more times. I am very frusteraated and am seriousily considering in re installing windows please help me if you can.  I can not download shockwave, adobe reader and other programs needed to play oother games and do ther things.  please help.  Sallydodge53 at yahoo.com
