Esocket error starting SEIV in windows 95?

[Wolfman77]

OK so my newer computer will no longer run SEIV in a playable manner. Thee is about a 3 second delay for everything that I do, if I move the mouse the cursor doesn't move for a few seconds, same with clicking buttons if I manage to get the cursor in the right spot. So I've given up on it untill I can aford a new one. Now I'm trying to load SEIV on my older comp with Windows 95. I used to have no problem with it a few years ago, but now I get an Esocket Error when I try to run it. tried both the gold version 1.60 from the disk and 1.94 patch. It is a fresh install of windows, and I put the network stuff on there even though I don't have it connected to anything, someone else had fixed a similar problem that way. Windows version is 4.00.950,

I have a couple of things I am going to try, but if anyone remembers having a problem like this and what they did to fix it, I would apreciate any help.
