Fresh install of POL and WINE. I might try to install Steam using only WINE but I figure that'd be pretty hard considering the amount of extra components I'll have to install.

Alright! I'll be trying again in a few minutes actually, I'm gonna do another fresh install and try to remember the steps that I take. Thanks again for all the help friend, I truly appreciate it! :)

It's great so far! Each game required a lot of messing about in the configuration but they work fantastically now!

Sorry for the late response, I was playing Final Fantasy XIII, Mirror's Edge, and Borderlands to test the functionality.

Sure thing! Everything works perfectly, I assume I had installed to many components and that messed something up.

Hey!! Got it working with a fresh install of POL and 1.6.2 WINE. Now everything's working! Thanks for all the help I wouldn't have done this without your support man. I'll be seeing you!

Yeah! Good eye friend, it's up there with my favorite shows!

Yeah those guides worked kind of in that my computer was still functional after doing them; they didn't change a thing in regards to the sound. I guess it's my hardware because (haha) I just completely removed Pulseaudio and restarted with JUST ALSA and the problem persisted so *shrug* I suppose...

I'll take a look at this, thanks a bunch! But my headphones are analog, the only thing which is USB/HDMI is my microphone (which has a built in speaker). I had much suspicion that Pulseaudio was the issue as it is like a barrier from ALSA to my audio card in reference to WINE. Thanks again man...

Ahhh yes I had done this previously but I did a clean install of Ubuntu and completely forgot. This fixed the "Test Sound" button and also reduced stuttering to what it probably should be. The lag however, is still there. The audio in any game that I play is at least half a second behind the...

(I should mention that in-game graphics performance is exactly as it should be, with no video stuttering. The audio lags behind the video and stutters a lot.)

After a bunch of Google searches I've seen that a lot of people have had this same issue but none of the fixes which I've seen have helped in the slightest (and I'd rather not disable PulseAudio and getting OSS because this usually ends up breaking my system sound haha). So this started when I...

Yeah I've installed all of those libraries, I've just decided to deal with it because it's probably something to do with my hardware haha. I'm using the newest 1.7.40 Wine version for Steam and I guess everything else (except for audio which I'll get into in another thread haha) works perfectly...

[SOLVED] I installed a previous xna version and the full DirectX setup again and it installed without fault.

I am trying to install the xna40 extra package for my Steam virtual drive to play some games and I get the error "Unable to find a version of runtime to run this application". Any suggestions? Thanks in advance for replies!

What I did was open PlayOnLinux and enter the "Install a Program" screen and search "Steam". I did not add ANY extra packages which in retrospect was probably an unwise decision. I figured this had optimized settings for steam but now that I think about it installing extra packages would have...

Right now I am using the default Wine version for Steam with PlayOnLinux which is 1.7.33. I mainly experience lag on specifically the Store and Community pages and that's all, only the GUI items in those windows work with slow speeds. I would just ignore it but I've been meaning to buy some new...

I am running the Steam program and all of my games through PlayOnLinux and everything works exceptionally. My games run faster than on Windows and the interface is almost perfect; I can view my games in the Library without slowdowns or malfunctions and the drop down menus are nearly flawless...

UPDATE 2: Everything works! Skyrim ran flawlessly and on high settings at the same FPS as it was on low settings on the Vista OS. Steam was proving to show bad performance, but switching the Windows version to 7 fixed this for me. Thanks again to booman and everyone on the thread!

UPDATE: I've just found out that I'm an idiot. I decided to not be stupid and install Steam through the PlayOnLinux installation window, so far it is working as it would on my windows OS, if not better. Now to install Skyrim by this means! I've read that the install speeds are slow on Wine and...
