Hello there! I am Charity, I'm an Independent Advisor. I'm glad to help you today!
My sincerest apologies about that. Some older games rely on DirectPlay, which is part of the "Legacy Components" in Windows. You can enable this by going to Control Panel > Programs > Turn Windows features on or off, and then check Legacy Components > DirectPlay.
Please let me know if this works for you. I'll do my best to respond as soon as possible.
Kind Regards,
Charity (GMT+08:00)
Please note that things might need more than one reply to completely resolve your issue, as it will completely depend on the complexity of the question and the amount of detail that you have provided me.
