Cannot start MSSQL Server 7

I am not able to start the MSSQL Server service on my system ever since
I shifted my house and got a new network provider. Earlier, I was on
the local cable hub, now my computer is on a DSL network. I don't know
if the network would have something to do with it, but I am just
providing information for the sake of completeness.
When I try starting MSSQL Server from the Services applet in the
Administrative Tools in Control Panel, I get a message saying,
The MSSQLServer service on Local Computer started and then stopped.
Some services stop automatically if they have no work to do, for
example, the Performance Logs and Alerts service.
Please help.Please do not multi-post. Many people have answered this in different
newsgroups.
