Get xp, you can lan anything with that.

 

I used to MP GTA2 via LAN, that's loads of fun.

I remember reading somewhere about a similar situation, and he was able to get IPX support by copying a bunch of files from an XP install.

However, I don't think it's that easy on a 64-bit vista, since the x64 version requires all drivers to be digitally signed.

 

I can't guarantee it'll work for you, but here are some google hits:
