Starcraft II in Arch?

Has anyone tried installing/playing Starcraft II in wine?
The beta worked fairly well for me with Ubuntu/wine; I've just been wondering if anyone has tried the retail sc2 on arch.
I couldn't find anything on winehw yet (since it came out yesterday I guess), but I was just curious. I'm going to try to install it in a couple hours and I will report back my experience

Wow, missed this on winehq (just saw the beta); http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p … &iId=20882
apparently it runs very well

WINE abnormally slow when playing Starcraft

I used to have a 1.6Ghz computer with 512MiB of RAM. It ran Starcraft just fine in WINE, full speed and everything. So, like any normal person would I upgraded this box as soon as I could. I now have a 2.3Ghz quad-core with 2GiB of RAM. Big improvement, right? Well, I get about 3-5 FPS in Starcraft. I've tried running Starcraft.exe in compatibility modes for XP and '98. I've tried googling for literally hours and I can't find any solutions.
So does anyone have any ideas? The weirdest thing is that I can run Spore full speed and play it in full screen; I can play Black & White on high detail at a pretty big resolution. Why can't I play Starcraft, I should be able to run 18 instances of Starcraft at once?
I just want my Starcraft back!

Ok guys I think I have complete solution for playing starcraft on linux arch (but can be applied on any distro in general) with wine and being able to connect to battle net. I will assume that you have properly set your graphic card drivers which is crucial thing. Nvidia is preferable brand for linux gaming in my opinion and experience.
1. Download wine tarball from aur repository and install it using makepkg -s and then sudo pacman -U "package name". It is for 686 architecture. This patched version of wine will allow you to play on battle net. It was optimized for warcraft 3 but it works for starcraft as well (both blizzard games ) )
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=27298
In this step we made starcraft playable on internet .
2. In this step we will optimize starcraft to run without glitches, lag or mouse delay under wine. After you make some wine regedit modifications, starcraft should be able to run smoothly. You should do next:
a) in terminal type: wine regedit
b) position yourself to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Software/Wine/Direct3D
c) in Direct3D add the following String Values (right click/New/String Value) or in menu (Edit/New/String Value):
I DirectDrawRenderer (value data: opengl)
II OffScreenRenderingMode (value data: fbo)
III RenderTargetLockMode (value data: readtex)
IV VideoMemorySize (value data: put your graphic card video memory size) p.s. For example mine is 256
Ok, those were registry tweaks concerning starcraft performance. Lets go to the next step, step 3.
3. Lets make some changes in winecfg. In terminal type winecfg. In applications window go add application and point to your starcraft.exe file. Mine is (/home/marko/Starcraft/StarCraft.exe) . Then mark Starcraft.exe and go to graphics tab and uncheck allow window manager to decorate the windows. The rest of settings leave as they were by default.
4. In my experience, after adding those registry modifications and changes in winecfg I had some problems starting starcraft properly. I got distorted screen and couldn't see starcrat menu properly. I am using xfce4 and I figured out that after changing my window manager from xfwm4 to metacity, using compiz fusion icon, I had no problems. So, my suggestion for you is to use metacity window manager while playing starcraft. sudo pacman -S metacity
5. The last thing I had to change is the keybinding for metacity. When I started playing starcraft whenever I clicked combo: right mouse click+ alt I got fast menu activated. Pretty annoying xD. If you have in mind that metacity is deafult window manager for gnome, logical conclusion would be that it can be changed in gnome-control-center:
Go sudo pacman -S gnome-control-center
After it installs in terminal type gnome-control-center and go to windows option. In windows option change Movement Key option from Alt to Meta.
After all those steps I had perfectly playable starcraft under wine with opportunity to connect on battle net and play some games. Starcraft was performing faster than in windows in my case . The only thing I wasn't been able to fix is black screen in battle net lobby which is not that big of a deal but still annoying a bit. You can still see where to click and how to login and thats what matters the most.
Thats all. I hope its helps.
Kisses from Serbia.

[Success] Dual Booting Arch and Windows 7 [Advice / Confirmation]

So I have been trying to get Starcraft II to work with wine and no luck.
I have decided to install windows back on my computer, besides it might come in handy since I'm heading back to school soon.
Anyways I have tried dual booting arch and windows in the past, and my results have never been stable.
Today I will try using the program gparted.
Let me give you my thoughts on how I plan to go through this and please give me some advice so I don't loose everything I have worked for on my linux box
1.Currently I have two hard drives, one for all my main programs and one for my media files (mounting usb, dvd, etc, and it actually has no files in it xD).
I plan to use gparted to re-size my second harddrive (media drive), create an extended partition, and a logical ntfs partition within it.
2.I pop in my windows cd that I recieved with my laptop and install it on the space I have partitioned for windows.
3. If my grub gets wiped out my windows (which I hope it doesn't not sure how the MBR stuff works) I insert a Ubuntu live cd and do
sudo grub
> root (hd0,0)
> setup (hd0)
> exit
4.Configure grub to boot windows 7.
5.Be happy with no headache.
SO....
If someone with past experience with dual booting windows and arch could please give me some advice, as I do not want to lose all my data, start over, and have another headache.
I know I must learn to backup arch, which I will before september.
But if anyone has any protips, or sees a flaw in my plan please point it out!!!
Thank you very much for taking the time to read this and even more if advice has been given to boost my confidence!
For now I will wait
Thank you fellow archies.

1) Windows must be installed to a primary partition - attempting to install it to an logical partition will result in an epic fail
2) Physically disconnect the harddrive you do not want windows on as windows typically installs the bootloader on the 1st hardisk (ie /sda) regardless of installation drive (ie /sdb)
3 / 4) Complete the windows installation then reattached your Arch drive and edit /boot/grub/menu.lst (as root) pointing the W7 entry to (hd1,0) - no need to reinstall grub
5) Hey it's windows - anything could happen
If you create an NTFS partition right at the beginning of the the drive before you start the W7 install you can prevent it greedily using up 2 of you 4 primary partitions - I would also completely update you new W7 installation past SP1 before reattaching the other drive to further prevent W7 going mental
satanselbow thank you so much!
Everything works great I had no stumbles, and I hope no problems in the future!!
I will post exactly what I did in case someone has the same issue.
1. Partition you're secondary harddrive as primary ntfs with gparted
2. Reboot, and if you get a file system check error, check you're udev rules. (For my case in particular I had to change the udev rules I got for auto mounting usb, ext harddrive, etc.
3.Power off your computer and physically remove the harddrive that contains all your linux goodies
4. Plug in your windows cd and install in the partition you created
5. Update your windows OS
6. Plug in Ubuntu live CD and reboot
7. Use commands to get grub to overwrite the windows boot loader (In my case I put grub everyone hd0,0 hd0,1 just to be sure, but you might want to do things cleaner)
8. Reboot and see if grub loads up
9. Use Ubuntu live CD again and launch Gparted, select the boot to your extra linux space (if you had one, not sure if this is needed)
10. Plug in your linux harddrive and reconfigure /boot/grub/menu.lst and your good to go
Once again shout outs to satanselbow!!! For without him I might've failed brutally!
Cheers!

Is arch the distro for me?

Hiya all, just want to thank you in advance for your time and advice:D
anyway, my plans are to buy the linux version of the MSI Wind when it is released in a few months.
(http://www.msimobile.com/DetailPage.asp … d_NB_Linux)
I have used SUSE (the distro it ships with) and did not like it too much.
arch was recommended to me by a friend, so I started looking into the option.
basically I need an easy to install distro that will work well enough on the wind to browse the internet, chat on IRC, play quake3, and maybe play starcraft under wine?
does this sound like arch? I've used a little linux, sabayon, ubuntu, suse, but basically I can explain my skill level by saying I was never able to successfully install gentoo (for the life of me I cannot find my way around a text-based install)
also, another bump in the road is that the wind does not have an optical drive, so no cds or dvds for me.
I saw the usb .img install and grabbed it, but as I am in windows vista right now, none of the meathods for writing the .img file seem to work right.
the closes I have gotten was by following this: http://webconverger.org/usb/
but it doesn't seem to want to write to my usb stick for some reason.
I type in the commands but it dosen't seem to do anything.
screenshot here:http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a157/g35x/arch.jpg
I suppose it would be easier to buy a usb optical drive, as I'm sure I will get tired of having to copy everything to a usb stick to get it onto the wind.
basically I need to know if arch can do the things I've mentioned, will be easy to install, and most importantly will work on the MSI wind. I was unsure about being able to play quake3 and use wine for starcraft because of video drivers, will arch work with the intel onboard video well enough?
again, thank you for your time, I look forward to using arch come time to buy my laptop:D

Looking at the MSI website the Wind uses an Intel graphics chip so you will probably need the 'intel' X.org driver (package xf86-video-intel). For hardware/driver related things it might be a good idea to boot into the Suse distro when you get the computer and find out what drivers etc are being used, that way you will know exactly what you need to install when you put Arch on it.
Also, if you want to post the other areas of the Wiki guide that you have problems with we may be able to help (and improve the Wiki if needed)
sounds like a good idea :]
guess I'll be back here in a few months once the linux version is released (I'm tempted to buy the windows XP version right now, but $100 more for 512mb more ram and bluetooth isn't exactly worth it. looks like I'll be waiting:/)
thanks for all the help guys!

Starcraft 2 via Wine -- fails to launch [SOLVED]

So, I might be a little late to the party, considering that SC2 came out going on two years ago, but I've only just got around to putting it on my shiny new Arch laptop...and I can't seem to get it to work.
I was able to download the installer from battle.net just fine, then ($ wine ~/Downloads/StarCraft_2_NA_en-US.exe) spent half of forever installing. It crashed twice, but when I restarted it, it simply checked the existing download, then picked up where it left off.
It opened Installer.exe, still in Wine, which installed the full package without crashing. A popup gave me the option to click "Play", which I did -- it then opened the patch checker, but promptly crashed with message
err:winediag:X11DRV_WineGL_InitOpenglInfo Direct rendering is disabled, most likely your OpenGL drivers haven't bee installed correctly (using GL renderer "Mesa DRI Intel(R) Sandybridge Mobile ", version "1.4 (3.0 Mesa 8.0.3)").

When I try to run StarCraft II.exe from the install location (wine ~/sc/StarCraft\ II/StarCraft\ II.exe), it gives me:
err:winediag:wined3d_dll_init The GLSL shader backend has been disabled. You get to keep all the pieces if it breaks.
fixmeprocess:GetLogicalProcessorInformation ((nil),0x32dca0):stub
...and then the same error message as before.
I think I understand that Wine is looking for particular graphics pieces which are disabled/missing, but I don't know exactly how I'd go about getting/fixing them.
I'm running x86_64 with an integrated Intel 3000 graphics card. My install is practically new, and I haven't touched Wine.
Sorry if it's a simple fix; I'm only on my second month of Arch (and the first was spent just trying to get my WiFi online...)

Whoops, I guess this newbie needs to learn to RTFM. DarkCerberus's comment led me to the wiki page on Wine, which addresses my problem word-for-word under Graphics Drivers.
Sorry for the interruption, folks.

[Solved] Starcraft 2 and wine

Hey, I was trying to install SC2 with wine on 64 bit arch, I followed the instructions on the wiki and got SC to install and update all the way, but when I run

I read I should install lib32-nvidia-utils(because they were different versions), but this conflicts with lib32-libgl (Which is says to install in the wiki).
When I install lib32-libgl and remove lib32-nvidia-utils I get an error in an alert that says:
"Failed to initialize DirectX. You may need to reinstall DirectX...etc"
Any idea what I should be doing to troubleshoot this?
Thanks for the help in advance guys.

[Wine] Starcraft II

Hello ppl, i`ve been trying to play SCII (I cant use the online functionalities) on my linux for a rasonable time, but without success.
This is probrably the first time i post asking help in any forums i ever saw. So, trust me, i am really stuck.

The only network-related error msg is "RAS SUPPORT NOT IMPLEMENTED - SWITCHING TO LAN/WINSOCK"
Before that it was a problem with winhttp proxy not found, i just installed winhttp and ie6. The connection worked before, but was INCREDIBLY SLOW, 60 segs to login.
Now i can login instantly, but S2 blocks single player and dont load anything (i think is cuz wine is trying to use some kind of LAN network wich SC2 may block to avoid private servers).
I cant really solve this myself, i would love any help. Also please notice that Starcraft II have a big size and a bigger update size, so dont ask me for reinstall if its not really necessary, since it takes 6-7 hours on my 5mb internet.
Also if needed i can provide ssh access to my system.

Wait about 10 - 15 mins. If that does not work, than wait 30 mins. It will take a (relative) long time, until it gets unblocked (only the first time).

Starcraft 2 beta wine crash

Hi all,
Everything worked just fine for Starcraft II Beta, until today. A new SC2 patch was released, patch 14 and after updating, SC2 just crashes after a few seconds and sometimes during startup. I have no idea what the cause of this problem is, and command line output doesn't show anything interesting either.
I tried ubuntu, and everything works just fine. So it should still work.. But it doesn't.
Therefor I guess it's an arch package upgrade that caused this. Is anyone experiencing the same?
I'm running the bin32-wine-sc2 package from aur, but bin32-wine doesn't work either. I also tried a 32bits chroot with the same results.
I did a system upgrade yesterday, and I didn't play anymore until the patch.
Edit; the SC2 error reporter gives an acces violation, nothing interesting either..

I see serveral people on the app db page (http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p … &iId=19376) with the same problem, I guess it's not arch linux related at all. I'm experiencing the same issue with ubuntu as well now. No idea why it did work before (maybe luck)

Can't play starcraft lan.

I am running starcraft in lan and everything works perfectly except lan with others. From what I read this is possible, I just havn't been able to figure out why It's not working on my own. We are using UDP on a non network switch. I use wicd. If that matters at all.

What version of wine are you using, mate?
Try installing version 1.3.19-2, here's a perl script that I just finished writing/testing that will download, install, and do everything for yall all easy-like.
#!/usr/bin/env perl
use warnings;
$result = `mkdir -p "2i/wine/"`;
print $result."\n";
chomp($arch = `uname -m`);
if ( $arch eq 'i686' )
$repo = "community";
elsif ( $arch eq 'x86_64' )
$repo = "multilib";
else
die "Error[0]: could not determine system architecture!!\n";
system("cd \"2i/wine/\" && wget http://arm.konnichi.com/2011/05/10/$repo/os/$arch/wine-1.3.19-2-$arch.pkg.tar.xz && sudo pacman -U wine-1.3.19-2-$arch.pkg.tar.xz && cd ../.. && rm -R -f \"2i\"");
save it as 'get-starcraft-wine.plx' and run it thusly
$ perl get-starcraft-wine.plx
Don't worry about arch, the script solves for whatever arch you are running.

Starcraft 2 freezes when loading.

I have had starcraft for a few months now and it has not given me any trouble. But for some reason, this morning it freezes whenever run with wine. I played it yesterday, did not update anything, and it worked fine.
I then updated all of my software, but the problem persisted. I also removed all configuration problems, and SC still freezes when it runs.
The freeze occurs right after the game loading screen, and before the user login window is displayed. When SC freezes, one of my cores is stuck at 100% usage.
I'm running Arch 64 bit, have an NVIDIA 9600M GT graphics card, all of my drivers and software are recent.
I am particularly confused by this since I literally did nothing to my system before SC started freezing. Below is the output from wine.

I am having this exact same issue on ubuntu. I'm running wine-1.3.5 which version are you using?
Also, a friend of mine had a similar issue under windows where the game would freeze before displaying the login screen. Seems it was the Defense+ system. Now this does not make sense for wine but what it does seem is that if the socket create / bind operation halts the game locks up. If the problem is similar someone did something to wine's networking.
I'm also getting an error about internal dll mmdevaip.dll not loading. If I remember correctly that needs to be disabled in your wine config. I checked this and attempted setting then unsettling it to no effect.
Edit: Running starcraft with winedbg Starcraft\ II.exe command line seems to work. Once you have done this once starcraft works with normal wine. I have no idea why but it worked for me.
NOTE: once winedbg starts you will need to type cont then hit enter. Once you get to the login screen exit and run starcraft normally.

Switching to Arch: Outstanding issue w/ printing

I've spent the last six months or so switching to Arch and intel (from OS X/Debian and ppc). I did think I was getting there but I've got stuck on some issues which seem small in some ways but are really problematic given the kind of work I need to do. Part of the problem is that I don't know where to start trying to diagnose or solve them.
I currently have three such issues. One has to do with getting my internal mic to work in usable fashion. The second is to do with the use of external monitors (e.g. for LCD projection). The third is the one which is really, really problematic. When it really matters, I can use one of the university's windows boxes for the mic. And the external monitor is manageable because it works and only causes issues on disconnect. But the third I have no work around for and I'm getting kind of desperate.
Generally speaking, printing works fine. My machine is set up to use a number of different printers: a Dell networked printer on my home LAN, an HP in my office via USB and another HP via USB in another office I work in. Printing is generally fast and good quality.
There are two problems. First, printing periodically gets "stuck" and the only way to get it unstuck is to kill all jobs in the queue, disconnect the printer, switch the printer off and then restart, reconnect and reprint everything. Even this is not impossible. I can get everything printed - it is just a question of figuring out what hasn't printed and remembering to recheck everything each time the printer stalls.
Second, certain documents print so slowly that it is, in practice, impossible to actually print them. I'm not sure what is special about these documents. Usually this happens with PDF files but it is certainly not all PDF files. It affects any which contain graphics but it also affects a lot which do not. Other PDFs print extremely fast.
For example, I am currently trying to print a PDF version of a paper. The job was sent at 18:42:37 BST. It is now 19:16 BST and it has so far managed to print 6 sides (3 pages). I'm printing it from acroread because it refused to print at all from Okular or the command line. This particular PDF is an older JSTOR file and these often seem to be affected. Recent stuff from JSTOR prints fine but older archives do not.
pdfinfo for the file gives:
Producer: iText 2.0.1 (by lowagie.com)

Times-Roman Type 1 no no no 140 0
Times-Italic Type 1 no no no 141 0
Times-Bold Type 1 no no no 6 0
acroread's properties for the document suggests that the non-embedded fonts are being substituted. For example, Arial MT is being used in place of Helvetica and Times New Roman PS MT is being substituted for Times.
Here's the command being run from ps:

Any sort of insight or suggestion will be gratefully received and I am more than happy to post further information if somebody tells me what is relevant. I've enabled debugging info in CUPS but I'm not sure what might be of interest and there is a lot of output.
I'm looking for, ideally, a solution which will allow me to just print (preferably solving both problems but at least the second). A second best outcome would be some sort of work around which would allow me to convert these files or something and then print them. (But convert to what?) Failing either of those, I am definitely interested in knowing what I might read, inspect or experiment with.
Given that printing other files works just fine, there must be something about how CUPS is handling files with some particular characteristics, mustn't there? I just have no idea which characteristics of the files are relevant or what it is doing. "I didn't manage to read the/your paper because Linux doesn't like older PDFs" just doesn't sound like a good excuse...

ewaller wrote:@cfr: Which interface are you using?
Do you mean am I using cups or something else or do you mean to configure the printers or something else?
I usually use the web interface to configure the printers for cups. I'm using the "recommended" HP drivers for the HP printers (and I think I'm using a proprietary ppd for the Dell printer from Dell but I use that printer much less than the others and not for printing these sorts of files).
I see the same problem with an HP LaserJet 1320 and a P3010 series (I think it is a 3015).
I discovered that if I switch to a gutenprint driver things are better for at least some JSTOR files on the 1320 but I still have issues. For some reason, it doesn't then want to print the last page (no matter how many pages there are) and this driver can only print at 600dpi and has fewer options. The printer is waiting for more data but cups thinks everything has been sent successfully. If I resend the last page to the printer, I then get two copies but one prints much later than the other. I assume this is another way in which something to do with the spooling or the way that cups sends data to the printer is going wrong and maybe connected with why printers get "stuck". Aside from the slowness issue there is definitely something not quite right about the communication between computer and printer. It is as though cups has two speeds: super quick (spools so fast the printer can't keep up); and super slow.
I've tried printing problematic PDFs from at least Okular, acroread and using lp on the command line.
I don't understand how the suggestion concerning converting them to png is supposed to work. Do you convert each page to a separate png file? I guess you could script it but it still seems like a convoluted process. (And I assume it rules out double-sided printing.)

Issues with Arch, xorg and Asus eee 4G 701

Hello, this is my first post here
I installed Arch 2009.02 on my Asus eee 701(4G), the installation went well and the system was up and running within minutes. I configured the wireless card (Atheros) which arch supported out-of-the-box and updated the system with pacman -Syu. Then, I installed the intel driver for the vga of the eee and attempted to configure X.
The issues started at this point. "Xorg -configure" appeared to work, but when I did "X -config /root/xorg.conf.new" all I could see was the mouse cursor as an X and nothing more. The touchpad didn't respond and nothing worked.
Then, I tried using "xorgcfg" but even though the screen worked great (I could see the stuff displayed), the system couldn't receive any input from the touchpad and thus the result was just a little bit better than with "Xorg -configure". I tried to reboot and use a USB mouse to see if the cursor responded but to no avail...
As a last resort, I decided to use the xorg.conf found on the eee page of the archwiki. I downloaded it in my PC, saved it and used wget to move it from my ftp server to the eee. I moved it to /etc/X11/ as xorg.conf and attempted to run "X -config /etc/X11/xorg.conf" to see if it worked. Unfortunately, no result. xorg attempted to start and then quit with the error "Fatal server error: no screens found".
That's pretty much it... I have no idea what to do next or why the xorg.conf found in the Arch wiki doesn't work... Any suggestions would be really appreciated...

I did what you suggested above, but it still fails. Then I studied the log and I found this:
Parse error on line 10 of section files in file /etc/X11/xorg.conf
"RgbPath" is not a valid keyboard in this section
Any suggestions on how to solve this?
EDIT: OK, the discussion page on the Archwiki helped. All I had to do was remove the 'RgbPath "/usr/share/X11/rgb"' line and xorg worked flawlessly

How can I reboot a default install of arch remotely?

I set up an arch box at school today, and it was the last day of school. I got it all set up the way I wanted, including openssh and the proper entry in rc.conf.
Imagine my expression when I realized that I forgot to start sshd, and didn't reboot the box.
I would like a way to use another box at school to reboot the arch box. I removed the default deny all in hosts.deny, and installed some stuff. I didn't reboot the box or start the daemons. Everything I need to start is in rc.conf, so a reboot is all that should be necessary.
Is there a security hole that I can use in the default install that will allow me to reboot the box?
School's out for summer break and I can't get back to the server room for a while.

You will have to use the social conditioning security hole for this one. Call up the secretary/janitor/security person and ask them to power cycle the box.

Dual boot Windows 7 (64) and Arch Linux (64) problems

Hello:
I am new to Arch Linux and just finished installing the 64bit on my laptop. It had a prebuilt Windows 7 (64) installed which I kept but split the hdd from 160Gb to 80Gb and 80Gb. I installed Arch there and set 4 partitions, all of them as Logical - a 64 MB ext2 /boot partition; a 512 MB swap partition; a 15 GB root partition; and the rest as my /home partition. My partitions look like this:
Disk Drive: /dev/sda
Size: 160041885696 bytes, 160.0 GB
Heads: 255 Sectors per Track: 63 Cylinders: 19457
Name Flags Part Type FS Type [Label] Size (MB)

sda6 Logical Linux 509.97*
sda7 Logical Linux ext2 15002.92*
sda8 Logical Linux ext2 57549.55*
The install was succesful(this was running from the core install cd) and I installed GRUB to my /boot but when I restarted it loaded Windows 7. I have used Knoppix USB disc to boot and see my Arch Linux install files and edited the /boot/gur/menu.lst file.
In Windows I installed EasyBCD 1.7.2 and tried to get NeoGrub bootloader working as a dual boot. I tried getting rid of the boot flag for Windows with cfdisk and setting it to my (Logical) sda5. That did not work. So far the only way I have booted into my Arch Linux install has been by going to the Live CD, choosing "Boot from Existing Linux Install" and editing the command files there.
root (hd0,4)
kernel /vmlinuz26 root=/dev/sda3 ro
initrd /kernel26.img
My goal is to get a dual boot working for Windows 7 and Arch Linux 64 and continue installing the Xorg and KDE to Arch. I just don't know what the problem is here. I don't mind reinstalling Arch if something went wrong, but I would like to keep my Windows running in order and add Arch on.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I ran the LiveCD and chose "Install to MBR hd0". I ended up with this:
setup hd(0,1)
Checking if "/boot/grub/stage1" exists.....yes
Checking if "/boot/grub/iso9660_stage1_5" exists.....yes

Running "install /boot/grub/stage1 d (hd0,1) /boot/grub/stage2 p (hd0,1) boot/grub/menu.lst".....failed

I want to dual boot windows 7 and Arch with an HDD caddy.

I am thinking of two possiblities with this scenario. I want to first leave my windows 7 install on the hard drive that came with my laptop, and leave that HDD where it is, but in a few days, i'm getting a caddy so i can switch my optical drive for another HDD, which is going to be a 250gb. On the 250, i want to experiment with arch, and maybe other linux distros, so i can get a nice feel for linux once again, it's been about 2 years since I've played with it. What i am hoping to maybe do is switch those hard drives out, if I can get a linux install i feel 100% comfortable with, and running the windows HDD in the caddy, and the linux HDD installed in the motherboard.
I just have a few questions though. First, is it possible to boot Arch when it is an HDD caddy? and second, would windows possibly work if i moved that hard drive into the caddy later?

Yes, and yes. Both should be quite easy.
You should be able to set you BIOS to boot from one or the other - or alternately you can chainload windows from a linux boot loader quite easily (if/when linux is on the drive that the BIOS has selected to boot).

Starcraft II in Arch?
