WinXP Pro 'Server' Service????

I recently installed WinXP Pro for the first time. Install went great. I was attempting to install a driver for my network printer, and I got the following error: "Server service not started." I went and looked in my services, and I do NOT have A 'Server' service. According to the Help it should be a part of the default WinXP Pro installation. I searched the forums and MS website to no avail.

I should have a "Server" service, right? Anybody have any idea why I don't have a "Server" service? Any idea how to get it back?

Thanks!
 
Nevermind, I figured it out. Makes me feel kind of stupid too. All I needed to do was add the "File and Printer Sharing" in the network setup. Even though I am not going to share the printer, "File and Printer Sharing" needed to be installed to add the Server service.
