Installing Steam with wine

Hi, Ive managed to get wine to work for a few of my applications like winmx.. and halflife..

But now i want to install steam and test out some online gaming. Ive seen a few tutorials on how to do this, and well... simply im stuck =]

Ive installed the latest wine.
Ive installed the reccommended font packs (and they seem to be working on winmx)

But when i go to install steam from the exe, all that appears is a blank square.

Odd i think to myself.

I boot up a console and see whats happening:

Code:
[skythra@mandrake Downloads]$ wine steaminstall_full.exe
fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus Converting errno 38 to STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL
fixme:ntdll:FILE_GetNtStatus Converting errno 38 to STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL
ReadStyleSheet: missing style number
