Hello again, Colin , I've been having problems to run kye 92 on wine
and I remember you telling me it works correctly.

KYE3EDIT.EXE does work well . But KYE.EXE returns this error:

Could not load 'SOUND.DLL' required by 'Kye', error=2

the bizarre thing is that I can't find any SOUND.DLL in my whole
windows XP hard drive neither in a google search

Hmm. Well, I have wine-0.0.20050725-0ubuntu1.1, and it works with just
wine, no real Windows DLLs needed.

I am using registered Kye v2.0 (works with or without the registration
keyword, though). What's Kye3edit.exe - maybe you have a different
version from me? I have

seems I forgot about the mailing list and was sending messages to you
directly. Anyways just so other users end up in this problem

The problem was introduced in the newest wine versions in order to fix
some problems with other applications.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3950

The solution pointed out by them about using winecfg did not work for
me, I had to manually copy /usr/lib/wine/sound.drv16 to
/usr/lib/wine/sound.dll16 which is far from being a good solution and
might cause problems with other applications.

sorry for stealing your time Colin.
