You don't say which other port values work, but is this a permissions thing? I have a vague recollection that non-admistrators require addition privaledges to be assigned before they can run tcp servers on the reserved port (0 .. 1023). It could also be related to which service pack you are running--permission required for various things tcp related change dramatically for non-admin accounts if you've installed SP2. Are you running a firewall? What if anything is showing up in the logs? Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
Lingua non convalesco, consenesco et abolesco. -- Rule 1 has a caveat! -- Who broke the cabal?
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
The "good enough" maybe good enough for the now, and perfection maybe unobtainable, but that should not preclude us from striving for perfection, when time, circumstance or desire allow.
