All You Do Is WINE About Windows!!!

So I have a few Windows apps that I need to run. I'll install WINE!
sudo emerge -av wine
Once wine is installed I followed this guide http://www.winehq.com/site/docs/wineusr-guide/index
IF I CAN READ YOU CAN TOO (I'll just list my problems)

Installing AutoGK:
wine "c:\program files\autogk\autogordianknot.2.27.setup.exe"
when I did that it ful screened and I couldn't do anything so I had to kill it
ps ax |grep wine < showed the wine server I killed it
ps ax |grep auto < showed the executable running i kill it and then i had my screen back

it looks like another guy has the same problem

Looks like I will have to update this once I figure it out...

******UPDATE******
Well I tried cpuz.exe with WINE and that worked... so autoGK must just be the way it was made!
With autoGK I also tried to "Press Enter" and some "ALT + [Letter]" combinations but nothing worked for me!
