How do I get this game to run in Wine? My gf ordered a game she used to have as a kid and really wants to play this one but it black screens on windows 10 and open's in wine but gives a render failure

How do I fix this??
Try installing one of the directx9 DLLs in winetricks or playonlinux. Or in playonlinux maybe use an older version of wine until you find the right wine version. Or make a VM of windows xp or windows 2000 or 98 or whatever, enable 3D acceleration and try the game there.

She wanted something simple. It's the first time she's ever had a dual boot PC and she's never used Linux

It's simple: Install Gentoo.

She's 17, no can do
i thought one reason why windows became so fucking bloated and still has bugs from windows nt4.0 is that they can brag about still supporting all that legacy shit ? but i guess it's just an excuse for why they can't manage to write any useable new code ..
anyway,

just setup a windows whatever vm and pass it a gpu.
wine became pretty much obsolete with iommu

Why the hostility?
I think I'm just going to open a new partition and install a lightweight windows xp

sad to see this, way to prove:
/g/ is useless
linux sucks
>>55410552
just set up a fucking VM and assign it ~4gb ram, 2 cores and a gpu.. fuck dual booting, it's not 2004
Run it in a VM with the version of Windows its made for.
