For windows 7 u cant do it like that
1. Click Start – Search for cmd, right-click cmd and select “Run as Administrator”
2. From the command prompt, run “hdwwiz.exe“. This should launch the “Add Hardware Wizard“. Click Next next and so on ........

I used to run a server on WinXP and this worked. As soon as I switched to Vista, I got the same error as you do. An easy fix is having the IP configured correctly. Try 127.0.0.1 in everything except CS connections,GS connections, and mapserverinfo. Those would be your WAN/Global IP.
