Print Spooler won't start

same problem here, help please.


-----Original Message-----
My printer seems to have uninstalled itself. One day
it's working fine, next day I'm unable to print. When I
go into Control Panel, the printer is gone (no printers
are listed). When I try to use the add printer wizard I
get an error: "Operation could not be completed". After
researching, I'm told to check the print spooler
service,
it's likely not started. When I try to start the print
spooler service, it gives me "error 1053: The service
did
not respond to the start or control request in a timely
manner" (Note - it gives this error immediately. The
Service Control window displays for less than a second
before the error occurs.)

Any ideas?
