Try VirtualBox to run Windows in a Virtual Environment.

A simple tutorial can be found here:

But may I know what program you wish to run? (Which you say Wine fails to help in)

Also you may try Cedega, it's commercial -- 5$/month, but often somewhat easier to configure: http://www.transgaming.com/.
