Computer browser vista service

Ok I had the same issue and just figured out how to fix it The RPC Locator service is set to manual by default. I set it to automatic, rebooted, and Computer Browser now starts ok. Hope this helps Monday, April 14, PM. Unfortunatly, that did not help. Thanks anyway! Ok I did find a workaround This will force startup of the service until a real fix is found.
