Hi,

if you have netsupport manager (remoting software) installed,
uninstall it and try again.
If not check settings at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Print\Monitors
I have here multiple entries. For "local port", Driver=localspl.dll
and one for "Standard TCP/IP Port", Driver = tcpmon.dll . Perhaps the
dlls cannot be loaded. You can detect the dependencies with depends.exe
from microsoft. For tcpmon.dll these are msvcrt.dll, ws2_32.dll and
spoolss.dll and the standard dlls. (msvcrt.dll could be a candidate).
For localspl.dll you can download a debug-version from my homepage,
which gives debug output in dbgview from sysinternals. It is renamed
to ddklocalmon.dll (search for it it google newsgroup)

Good luck

Hi Guys ,

I work in a small office as the in house programmer , but I am expected
to support a the network as well.

The boss's computer does not have port types " local port" and
"Standard TCP/IP port" under files > server properties > ports > add
new port > port types.

I do not want to re-install Windows XP. And by the way , he did delete
the port types ( reasons best known to the man himself)

Please be generous and respond to this post , I am in a bind .

thanks
