Can't execute .exe

I can't execute .exe files on linus lite. what could be the problem?

  • dmsenter Apr 16, 2009

    The problem that I have is that I am trying to set up my 3G card on this system, but it doesn't want to do anything when I click on the setup icon. I have read various comments on various forums with a lot of people having the same problem, and the support desk where I bought the computer from couldn't help me, just told me to convert it to a Windows machine. I have seen on some of these forums that you need to put in a command somewhere, but being completely new to Linux, I don't have a clue what to do. Please can you help?

Your Netbook uses Fedora 6 for an operating system which is a version of linus. *nix operating systems do not use file extensions to determine if a file is executable or not. It uses information stored in the file header. Most likely this .exe you want to execute is not a *nix executable file but a Windows executable instead.
