Update 25-Nov-2015: My patch has just been applied/committed on winetricks repo. If you have the current winetricks repo then you just need to refresh its content

(git update)

Status 21-Nov-2015:I am currently working on PS2 (native version for Windows). I met this error yesterday

"Visual Studio 2015-compiled C++ programs do not run (unimplemented function api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll._initialize_onexit_table)"

I noticed that a ticket was opened on Wine-Bugzilla at https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39437.

As sugested by another viewer I opened a ticket for winetricks to add missing DLLs. Ticket for winetricks is available at https://github.com/Winetricks/winetricks/issues/575. I added a patch to my ticket to apply to winetricks.

If it is OK then next time I will update my winetricks repo and run

winetricks vcrun2015

then it should be OK

Have a look at http://www.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c01549447.pdf

I bought this PC (HP Compaq 7900 on ebay this week). Machine was received on Saturday, 18-Sept-2015. I spent all my time this Saturday on getting ReactOS to run on this PC. Its specs are almost the same as the specs I saw on youtube for a Dell Inspiron 530s. So it should work (Or not? Or how to waste your own money? That is the question...).

The first good new was that I was able to install ReactOS. Issue was: no network. So I spent all my Saturday afternoon on finding the right driver. That was pretty a lot of works to do

Finally it works :). I found the right driver for network interface

In the future I plan to use this workstation on ReactOS for reading my mails (through ThunderBird...). I already have my own Linux workstation to test video games on Wine

Youtube video

Referring to ReactOS SVN repository I used revision = 69458 for this VM. As quoted from ReactOS Wiki, sound can work only once :(. But at least I can play one video
