Myself and my housemate are on a network and regularly share media files from one computer to the one with the sound/projector attached.

After a Windows update last night, my housemate can't get into his own shared folder, and neither can I. He cannot start the services manually, either-- nothing's happening.

Any ideas?

Confirm that the Windows update is the root cause by rolling back the update via System Restore. If it definitely is the update, check what the update is doing by looking it up on the Microsoft Knowledgebase.
