ICS problem

Hi, I am trying to install a network and ICS on my two PC's one XP Home Edition, one Win 98SE. The network setup wizard will not finish, I get an error. If I try to enable ICS through network connections, I get the error message: "Cannot enable shared access. Error 1060: The specified service does not exist as an installed service".
I really don't understand this message, I have Bt Openworld Broadband installed correctly and it works fine on the host xp machine. Any help much appreciated :)
