Default Vista - ICS error msg

hey guys, hoping somebody has an idea for this one. i've seen this issue
described pretty much exactly in one other post, but nobody replied to the
guy.
i have a computer running vista ultimate, connected to LAN/WAN via a
wireless connection to a router. the router and wireless adpater are setup to
establish an IP using DHCP. i also have an xbox 360 connected to the vista
machine via a crossover cable to the onboard network adapter. the 360 and
machine can communicate fine. i'm trying to enable ICS so the 360 can use the
internet connection, but i get skunked when go into the wireless properties
and tick the checkbox to "allow other users to connect" and click OK - the
error msg is "An error occurred while internet connection sharing was being
enabled." below that is "(null)", likely where an error code should be.

i had this working a few weeks ago and just recently tried jumping online
via my 360, but despite my best efforts it's a no-go. does anybody know the
services required to make ICS work in vista? i did change 2 services
recently, altho they were almost certainly not related to any network
functions windows uses. any help would be appreciated, thanks!
