What happens when you try?

Check Event Viewer for errors. When you view the logged events in Event
Viewer (double-click them in the right-hand pane) in the upper right corner,
third button down is a copy to clipboard, then you can paste in the body of
a reply message.

Please do so for each of the different System Log events (that are a Type:
'Error' or 'Warning') since last boot so we can see all of the event detail.

Dave,

Thanks for responding, but I don't know where the Event Viewer is.

This is what I see:

Event Type: Error
Event Source: Service Control Manager
Event Category: None
Event ID: 7001
Date: 12/5/2005
Time: 5:45:37 PM
User: N/A
Computer: UPSTAIRSOFFICE
Description:
The Windows Firewall/Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) service depends on
the Network Connections service which failed to start because of the
following error:
The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it
has no enabled devices associated with it.
