Answer:
You cannot open an execuatable file (.exe) or Windows Installer package (.msi) in Ubuntu, because those files were designed to work on Windows only. If you want to play it, install VirtualBox, then install Windows XP, Vista, or 7 in a virtual machine, mount the .iso, in the virtual machine, then start the installer (inside the virtual machine). If you confused about virtual machines, message me. www.virtualbox.org PS: NEVER use Wine or CrossOver Suite to emulate Windows programs. They never work, and never will!!
