Hi MISAE, welcome.
Since you will have to install XP from scratch, the server problem may resolve itself. I would say try it, then if you have a problem post back in this thread and we can work on it. |

Well, when I try to "net stop server", I get
The following services are dependent on the Server service. Stopping the Server service will also stop these services. Computer Browser Do you want to continue this operation? (Y/N) [N]: so make sure Computer Browser is also started in services.msc. ALso found this: http://www.jsifaq.com/SF/Tips/Tip.aspx?id=1368 |

Now that you mention that...I see browser and workstation are also not listed in services.msc. AHHHHH!!!!
I need one to start the other but none are listed!!! Do you know if sfc /scannow or XP repair from disc would resolve issue? Thanks anyways...really appreciate it |

I doubt very much if SFC will do anything for you but a Repair Install certainly should.
Even though a Repair Install leaves your data intact, I would recommend backing up your data before doing it. Also cleanup your system. CCleaner is a great program for getting rid of the accumulated junk. If you decide to do a repair install, once completed, install ERUNT which does a very good job of backing up the registry (keeps 30 days worth) and makes it easy to restore if needed. Good directions here for doing a Repair Install |
