For games, try winex from http://www.transgaming.com This thing is great, you have to pay if you want a packaged version, but is available for free from cvs. After installing, you can play a variety of directx windows-only games quite easily by simply typing 'winex game.exe' from the console. I've only tried (and succeeded with) the following games: jedi knight 2, max payne, warcraft 3, soldier of fortune (1 and 2) Not a bad list though.
