Vista likes to give me wierd crap that happens randomly all the time.

First it was not being able to rename a folder on Vista x64 on a friends PC, now its me using x86 Ultimate. I think this might be an easy fix but idk.

Anyways heres the deal.
Network List Service and a few other networking things dont seem to want to pop up all of a sudden. When i try to start them myself i get this.

Now i have all the updates and i have had them since i installed about 2 weeks ago. So 2 questions

Why is it doing this? (i have this happen alot actualy)
And how do i fix it?

Vista is just a hog thats why lol.

Ive seen where someone upgraded Vista on top of Vista and it worked but i would imagine that it would delete everything. Ill keep searching for a solution.

Or possibly this though it was made for 32 bit it will probably work for 64.

Ahaha sweet! Im using x86 Ultimate for myself and that seemed to do the trick.

What exactly did you Google to bring that up? Because the last 4 times ive had this problem i couldnt find anything that had a simple solution like that.

Any find on that folder thing? Its the only thing keeping me from using x64 Ultimate.
