Im trying to load civ 3 and whenever I try to open it up in Wine it says this "The file ‘/media/DISK1/autorun.exe’ is not marked as executable. If this was downloaded or copied from an untrusted source, it may be dangerous to run." whenever i click on properties and permissions and click allow executing file as program i get this "Sorry, could not change the permissions of "autorun.exe": Error setting permissions: Read-only file system" I swtiched from Kubuntu to Linux Mint 10 yesterday and I had no problems with Wine in kubuntu. How can I get Wine to run?

I recently installed Linux Mint 9, I’m quite happy with it but I’m just an average computer user so some things seem way too complicated for me. Wine installs windows software but they don’t run on there, I tried Windows Live Messenger and Sopcast but neither would work so is there a version of Linux which is more user friendly for novices? I know open source softwares are available but I don’t know how to install most of them as I’m not a techno wizard. Thanks in advance.
