Cannot install DA:O - autorun.exe encounters serious problem

I cannot install DA:O onto my Macbook through Crossover. I have followed all the instructions and everything downloads and installs perfectly (physx, .net framework 2, C++ visuals 5.0 and 8.0, etc) except for the actual game. I get a message from the application wineloader saying "autorun.exe has encountered a serious problem and needs to close. This can be caused by a problem in the program or a deficiency in Wine. You may want to check the Application Database for the tips about running this application," which links me here. Any ideas on how to fix it? I'm trying to install from an .iso if that helps.

EDIT: I'd like to clarify that I cannot launch the game because there is no "dragonage.app" to run. I don't even have a crossover games folder in my applications. I notice that crossover downloaded wine gecko 32-bit while my macbook air is 64-bit. Is that the source of error? Here are my laptop specs:

Processor 1.3 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics Intel HD Graphics 5000 1024 MB
Software OS X 10.8.5 (12F45)
