DirectPlay Init Failure!
DirectPlay failed to load properly. This is probably an OS installation bug. You might need to reinstall your operating system. Windows 8.1 and later users can install DirectPlay through Control Panel -> Programs -> Turns Windows features on or off -> Legacy Components -> DirectPlay.
you need to uninstall from were you have it. reboot
now install like this to the [86]directory
The game installed similar to this for Vista/ W7/ W8/ Win10. 64 bit.

install the game as admin, in compatibility mode for xpsp3.
windows8
Some find using compatibility mode for w98 or w95 works better. Try all if having a problem
