You need to use #winetricks Install winetricks and install the VC++ packages :).

I would suggest installing the most recent, but I often install all of them to be safe. – RolandiXor♦ Mar 2 '11 at 20:31
which one is the latest? vcrun2010 I guess? or the other two following it – Ashfame Mar 2 '11 at 21:09
I believe 2010 is the latest, but you might want to install the others to maximize support for most windows applications. – RolandiXor♦ Mar 2 '11 at 21:43

Thanks, trying other VC++ packages helped. vcrun2010 wouldn't install, was giving error with wget and then it would abort the installation. – Ashfame Mar 3 '11 at 22:45
