Network & Sharing won't open or freezes

[nplm]

I've searched online and know this problem exists for others, but couldn't
find a solution.

When I click on network and sharing it either doesn't open, or opens with a
blank window then freezes.

Anyone have a solution? If it matters, my eventual goal is to enable file
sharing so that I can begin the process of transferring my files to a mac.
So if there is an alternate way to enable this, plz let me know. Thanks!

For troubleshooting, try to start the Vista with the clean boot. Do you
still have the same issue?
