Hi Rolf,

About the time you started having problems, did you install, uninstall any
new hardware of software?? Did you make any changes to your system, Group
Policies perhaps?

Thanks,
Jeff

Nothing changed in GP. I didn't install any major software that I can think
of, but it took a few days before me noticing WDS didn't work, as I don't
need it every day.

I too have thought that some software must've broken WDS, but hoped the WDS
installer would fix it when I reinstalled. Seems that it can't.

Try this...

Uninstall the current version of both the MUI and WDS. Then download the
latest versions from:

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/desktopsearch/enterprise/downloads.mspx

Be sure to install WDS first then the MUI and you should have no problems.
