I am trying to share a couple of folders on my PC over my network.
After going to 'Sharing and Security' for the folder and clicking
'Share this folder on the network', I get an error saying the 'Server'
service is not started.

If I go to start the Server Service I get the following error:

'Could not start the server service. Error 1083: The executable
program that this service is configured to run in does not implement
this service.'.

I am using Win XP SP1.

Can anyone help please???

Make sure File & Print sharing are enable.

run the Network Setup Wizzard, it will make sure everything needed to do
file sharing is setup correctly. This is the easiest/fastest way to solve
issues w/ file sharing.
