print spooler problem

[Guest]

I'm trying to rehabilitate a computer running on XP Pro and can't get the
print spool service to run. I've tried several suggestions from other's
problems but to no avail. I even reinstalled Windows from the CD, but when
it tried to copy the spoolsv.exe file it failed - I finished the
reinstallation anyway.

Now the computer is up and running but I still can't fix the spooler
problem. I tried to start the spooler using the services.msc window, but
when I click the start button I get

" Error 23: Data error (cyclic redundancy check)"

What else can I try?

Don't know, but a CRC error is usually caused by hardware. You ought to run
the manufacturer's diagnostic program before going any further.
