internet sharing problem

[Guest]

When I try to check the box on my network adapter to share the internet
connection, I get a message that says "dependency service or group fail to
start."

Under advanced settings: I can select or deselect but still returns same
message.

I have tried uninstalling the adapter and reinstalling it, but no luck in
working.

My host computer is able to get on the internet-so the adapter is working; I
need the other computers on my network to connect to the internet.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a bunch.
