I got the same in windows (7, x64)

Works for me on Windows 7, x64. Try updating your DirectX.

Doesn't seem to work for me either on Windows 7 64bit.

Just installed direct X from microsoft's site, still no joy. Crashes just after intro.

Any other libraries I might be missing?

Crashes for me too.

Just read this on the site:

Some users have reported that the game may run on Windows XP and 2GB RAM. A known bug will crash the game on computers with some Intel graphics chipsets.

I have one of those hybrid graphics setups for laptops, so maybe that's the problem.

Yeah, same thing here. That was both the most exciting and disappointing experience I've ever had with wine.
