Star Trek: Klingon on linux via wine

Requires Video for Windows but won't install due to "Video for Windows does not run on Windows NT 3.1. Please upgrade your version of Winodws." Despite having winecfg set to Windows XP.

Copy the /media/cdrom0/vfw11ea folder somewhere and edit setup.mst. Remove lines 67-74. nope it is win nt kernel, so probably just 69-73

Then it will start up, and not display video. 😢

Bonus, copying the video files from the disk to C:\ and changing klingon.ini disk drive to C:\ removes the need to have the cd in the drive.
