Network setup wizard and SPOOLSV.exe
Xref: kermit microsoft.public.windowsxp.network_web:196417
I am now on the final bit of setting up a Home network. I have manaed to set up a peer-peer wireless LAN (802.11g) between my PC and laptop (both running XP Home SP1). The PC is connected to the internet via Broadband (USB connection to DSL Modem). Both my computers are using a 192.168.0.x address for their wireless LAN adapter. When I run the Network Setup Wizard it all goes swimming well in the parameter set up phase and it then rushes off to do the set up. Just before it finishes there is a SPOOLSV.EXE Application Error (1000) and then the set up looks like it is finishing off but no Home Office Lan is evident thereafter. I assume that because of this error that the set up aborts. Any clues anybody - the MS KB shows nowt and whilst there is plenty of other stuff related to SPOOLSV.EXE on the web my specific problem isn't mentioned. |

Network setup wizard and SPOOLSV.exe
I've used this, it works most of the time
start - right click "my computer" - manage - services and applications - services - in the right panel scroll to Print Spooler - Stop the print spooler - exit rerun the wizard ----- JWM wrote: ----- I am now on the final bit of setting up a Home network.
