datasocket 4.0 server crashes when launched on win95

HELP!
When launched from the "start" menu, the datasocket
server crashes:
"cwdss has performed an illegal operation ...
... contact program vendor"
"cwdss caused an invalid page fault at xxx:xxxxx"

Labview itself runs OK, upgrading from 6.0 to 6.0.2
did not help.
I've disabled virus protection.
I've tried the upgrade dated 10/31/2001 referred to
in a knowledge-base article

Thanks!

Hi,
The problem could be that you don't have the TCP/IP protocol installed on your PC. Add the TCP/IP protocol by going into the network properties, click Add select protocol, click Add select Microsoft - TCP/IP protocol, Then click OK and probably reboot your PC. More information is in Knowledgebase 217AHFK3 "Datasocket server crashes during launch".
Good luck.

To follow up just in case others have this problem.
For some reason there was some bad interaction between the TCP/IP software in windows and datasocket server (DSS) which caused it to crash.
I tried many things, including uninstalling and reinstalling the networking portion of win95, but this didn't work.
My final solution was: reinstall windows.
