I have been at this for hours and I just can't figure this out.

I got through steps 1 to 3. However Step 4 is where it gets complicated.
What does it mean by "your bottle's drive C"---How do I get there and how do I find the .dll files?
Second, where is /windows/system/32---I have no idea where this is and how I was suppose to move the .dll files into it?
What does inserting RON Cd have anything to do with step 4 and if it does how so?
How was I suppose to open regedit in "the bottle" and import RoN.reg? Is this "the bottle," the one created in step 1?

Well that's as far as I got. These directions are very hard to follow for someone who is not as computer literate as the people who post these. It would help a lot if I could get directions that were made for someone who has no idea how to get to things like gm.dls or /windows/system32/drivers. Thank you.

The bottle's C drive is in ~/.cxgames/<bottle>/drive_c/ on Linux, and ~/Library/Application Support/CrossOver Games/Bottles/<bottle>/drive_c on OSX. When you see that folder you should also find the answer to the windows directory there.

On Linux, there's an item "Run Windows Command" in the CrossOver submenu of your desktop's Applications menu. On the Mac, there's Run Command under the Programs menu. Either of those allows you to pick one of your bottles and then specify a command to run. In this case, the command is "regedit".

And, yes, that bottle referenced in Step 5 is the one you created in Step 1. (A "bottle" is our term for a virtual Windows environment, with its own registry, system files, installed applications and fonts, etc.)
