Guys,
I had to put Ubunutu on my little brother's PC for I could not find the drivers for it to work under XP (coming from 2000). Anyways, he has a baseball game that a local programmer created with the local players, stadiums, etc. I have done some googling and found Wine, but it doesn't run correctly.
Any ideas?

Alternatively, give us the specs of the components in that PC and we'll find them for you.

I don't know where to see the names of the components from within Ubuntu, put it is a Compaq Evo D51C.
He would be extremely happy with Windows (sadly).

If nothing, I'm installing a virtualization program. Might be a bit slow, but oh well, he asked for it.

I tried those drivers before getting Ubuntu on. None worked. I'm giving Crossover Games a try.
Thanks for all the help, I really appreciate it!

Crossover Games did not work, so I'm stuck with VirtualBox.
Edit: VirtualBox did not work, so I'm stuck with a very pissed little brother.
