Sandy,
In the Startup folder (inside Local System), I see "TCP/IP Startup".
Properties shows that TCPSTART.CMD is to be executed on my systems.

Did you look at this place, to see if the Properties might have gotten
changed? And did you rename or otherwise get rid of the .BK1 file?

It seems odd that restoring to defaults would do this, but maybe that's
the way it was "designed" (by a lazy programmer, perhaps?).
