Hi,
I don't think so. DirectPlay is a very very old technology. I don't know 
how many folks on this list keep up to date with what is going on in the 
Windows technology world, but DirectPlay was officially dropped by 
Microsoft in November 2007. That was almost a year ago when DirectPlay 
was officially removed as a core Windows technology. We as developers 
need to begin thinking about something else if we want to be ready for 
Windows 7 support.
We as blind gamers need to recognise the fact a lot of the technologies 
we are using for games such as Visual Basic 6 and DirectPlay are only 
going to be supported up to Windows Vista. Windows 7 on will not have 
any support for these technologies. It might be possible to force an 
installation of VB 6 libraries, DirectPlay, etc but it is going to get 
harder and harder to support as time goes by.
