ive had alot of problems with my computer lately since its pretty old, my brother fixed it today after i was unable to use it at all for about a week, but had to put linux as my operating system since i lost my wins xp discs. i play world of warcraft and know i can use wine to run it with linux, but havent been able to do it yet. ive been looking all day for instructions on how to do it that i can understand, but havent found anything yet thats worked out to being able to play. i dont know that much about what im doing, so if anyone can help me figure out what i need to do to play wow, or know a good site to go to with easy instructions, i would greatly appreciate the help.

If you're going to play WoW I recommend reinstalling Windows. Just because you don't have your disk doesn't mean that Windows can't be reinstalled. All you need is your license number (usually found on a sticker on the back of your tower or bottom of a laptop).
