Default winsock initialization failed

Just clean-installed Win98SE. Tried running game called Heretic II.
Game doesn't launch, instead a pop-up box appears which says "winsock
initialization failed"

After installing Win98SE, I went to Device Manager and removed
something (can't remember exactly what it was) called "network
adaptor". Could this be the problem?

I ran sfc, but that didn't help me out.

Any suggestions gratefully received. Best regards, Robert.
