WineX, Requirements/.dlls

I have a pure Slackware-current (> 10.2) system. No dual boot, no windows partition.
I cvs'd the latest WineX and installed it.
I made my ~/.wine/config file
I tried to start wineserver, but got an error about the windows system being broken.
I suspect this has to do with the fact that i just made the directories and they are empty.

What files (.dlls?) should I put in the "c:\windows" "c:\windows\system32" etc..etc.. directories?
If that's the answer I just need a list of what I need.
Can I just ftp them over from an XP pro box?

The goal is to be able to play some games (GuildWars - which supposedly has WineX support)...

Not interested in office stuff so much..

The question isnt so much about XP itself, or Windows at all.
I have Slackware, I want to run Wine. I guess there is a blending there. But I wouldnt consider this an XP based question.

The question -restated a different way is:
I have compiled and installed Wine,
I have made the config file and folder.
What is next? what are the req. for getting it to work on a box that has no windows partition?
It works. "wine winmine.exe" for example
