Finally I dumped windows giving a 20gb of disk space just for the sake of it..and living completely on Ubuntu... and working on much more... I started experimenting on wine to run windows application, mainly games.. here is a posted which i compiled for any one unable to run.

- First install wine windows program loader 1.3 from Ubuntu software center or the synaptic package manager.
- load the CD/DVD (and/or) right click on the installation file and Open with> wine windows program loader.
- continue installation as you do on windows.
- and to patch up or crack the game installation, the C drive is available in the /home/UserName/.wine folder.
- and click on the .exe file to play the game.. sometimes I get this when I start the game.. which is really annoying.

- so what i did is, I opened configure wine. Under application > application settings choose add application select the .exe file. which will be UT2004.exe to play Unreal tournament 2004.
- choose windows version Windows 7.
