My advise, uninstall the game. Delete the old folders, reinstall the game, download a new Version of the latest patch. Patch it. Should work. I had this happen before and that fixed it.

No, Se4 does not have to be on the same drive with Windows.

It's definetly a winsock issue.

Make sure you have the latest winsock, you can get that from Microsoft. There was an updated Version of the winsock that came in Windows 95b.
