I've seen this error before, it looks like tcpip.sys has corrupted. If its a FAT partition, and you can boot to dos, copy tcpip.sys from a good system to \winnt\system32\drivers and this may cure the problem.

The problem is because you had loaded a service Pack onto your workstation and then loaded server on top. The server has no service packs loaded, there for is trying to load files that are newer than what it has written in the registry.

You need to run a repair and replace the system files, this will work

Cheers
