Rebuilbm not working

Hello
I have:
Windows 2000 server with SP3, SQL standard SP2
After a NT backup restore I want to use REBUILDM.EXE to create the system databases in order to restore the databases.
I get the error “Rebuild Master failed with error -1:”
I am aware of KB 273572 and I have a copy of the original files into a folder on the server. The files are not “Read-only”
But I get the error. Did some research…no luck.
If you experienced this please let me know.
Thanks a lot
Look at the SQL Server errolog and verify that Shared Memory is loaded. If
not, reboot the machine. Rebuildm makes a shared memory connection so if
shared memory is not loaded it will fail.

I don't have a new sql log.
I checked Server network utility and shared memory is enabled.
How can I verify if Shared Memory is loaded?
I rebooted the server and I get the same error.

You should have an errorlog file, each time SQL Server starts it creates such a file. The name of the file is
"errorlog".
