Which option? Make sure you've installed either the TCP/IP or IPX protocol into NT.

Thank you, I got only netbui, now I have installed IPX and the multiplayer works fine.
Now I have the problem that I got no sound, but I have seen some fixes in this forum that I will try.

Here's one, when I go to launch (host)a multi-player IPX game it says, "Sorry, but the host's version of the game is older than your version and incompatible. In order to connect, this session's host will need to update the game." Now, I'm the only one who started the game, I'm trying to host, and I have version 2.0....how does this add up? I'm launching to host so how can the "host's" game be older than mine? Am i missing something?
