Error 1067 in services when starting apple mobile device

Hi everyone,

I usually fix the problem but I tried everything I can think of and the problem still persists.

How it started:
1)My homescreen on my iphone began to mess up so reset all settings (not erase) and then my homescreen was set to default layout!
2)I decide to connect my iphone to itunes so I can sync and have my old homescreen layout back

3)when I connect my iphone to iTunes, it gives me this message "this iphone cannot be used because the apple mobile device service is not started"
4)I restore my iphone using another computer, the message is still there with my computer but not the one I used to restore
5)I reinstall iTunes and all its components (even tried to downgrade)

Still not working!

6) I search Google for this problem and it says to go to Start> search> services and then restart "Apple mobile device"
7) When I restart iTunes and plug-in my iPhone 3G "Apple mobile device stops"
8) When I have my iPhone connected and try to starts 3apple mobile devices" in "Services" I get an error : "Windows could not start the Apple Mobile Device service on Local Computer, Error 1067: the process terminated unexpectedly"

If someone could please help me!

Ps: I can't restore windows 7 because I didn't have System restore enabled so I don't have any previous restore points.

desktop, Windows 7
