When I got the the 1017 error in Windows XP I tried all of these solutions to no avail. I started tinkering around and found something else that can cause the 1017 error. If you have the Internet Connection Sharing enabled it will also cause this error. I had it enabled for my modem, and that computer was the only one that couldn't connect in my LAN. When I disabled the ICS (or whatever it is called in XP) it started up fine. Maybe there is another setting somewhere to change to you can run ICS and EQ at the same time, but I haven't looked into that yet.
