EAC unresponsive in Wine [LMDE]

I've installed Exact Audio Copy via Wine and the program is hanging whenever I open it. I used an older version of EAC (0.99 beta 5) - newer versions were failing to start with Wine apparently. But no luck.
Could this be an LMDE issue or something unrelated. Any ideas appreciated thanks.

I had similar problem with the latest one which I installed.
But I just tried to download some former versions which is 'just-run' versions, no need to install and they work

Thanks for the tip. Would you be able to give me an example of a 'just run' copy of EAC?

From its homepage of course (mostly)
http://www.exactaudiocopy.de/en/index.p ... -download/
I downloaded version
0.99 prebeta 5 - the zipped one

Yes it's the 0.99 prebeta 5 that I've been using and having trouble with. Strange...

Look, this version I have and open it by wine with no errors:

It's version which I just extracted from zip, not installed...
If still having problems try to get version
0.81 beta it's zipped too.
P.S. A cooltip: if you download even .exe file, no need to get the 0.81, just open that .exe file with an archiver and extract it. Then open that .exe inside by '
Wine windows program loader' / right button click...
