I was able to successfully install Microsoft Pinball Aracde in a WinXP bottle on the following machine:
Soyo SY-7ISA+ Intel i815 Motherboard
Intel Pentium III 866 MHz Processor
512 MB SDRAM
PNY Verto GeForce FX 5200 AGP 8x 256 MB DDR
Creative Labs Sound Blaster Live! 5.1 PCI Sound Card (SB0220)
Samsung CD-RW/DVD Drive Model: TS-H492A/RSWN
Dual Boot openSUSE Linux 10.3/Windows XP Pro SP3
CodeWeavers CrossOver Games for Linux Version 7.1.2
It is a sore trial of one's patience, however, as it took about six minutes just to install a game that only takes about 100 MB of disk space on a Windows machine. Also, the installer launcher/window is very unattractive. The launcher has the appearance of an application being run on a machine which lacks the necessary support for the particular graphics mode in which it is trying to run. The text is, however, sufficiently legible to complete the installation process.
The game launcher displays properly, although the opening cutscene music does not play back properly. It is possible to change options in the game from the launcher. Particular tables can also be selected, but none are playable since only a black screen with a white pointer/cursor is visible after the table load screen disappears. Once the table screen appears, if you know (or can guess) where the button is to insert coins, you can insert coins and then press the appropriate number key to select the number of players. You can hear score counters reset or any other table startup sounds. You can then launch balls with the plunger key and hear the ball strike targets and bumpers, and you can hear the flippers as you press the corresponding keys. So the sound works, and the table does run, but you can't see it.
The music does not play when the table screen is (not but should be) displayed. This, however, is also problematic even on Windows systems. I ran tests one time to figure out why I and a number of other people were having problems not being able to hear music when playing the tables. I determined that the music will play if the machine has the same version of DirectX installed as that which ships on the CD-ROM (DirectX 7). However, if a higher version of DirectX is installed, the music disappears. Since CrossOver provides DX9 support, I wouldn't expect to hear music anyway.
