This could be related to a corrupt WMI repository. Can you run the WMI diagnosis tool (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?familyid=d7ba3cd6-18d1-4d05-b11e-4c64192ae97d&displaylang=en).

Hi, 1. Navigate to the following folder and run the following commands: C:\Windows\System32\Wbem for /f %s in ('dir /b *.mof *.mfl') do mofcomp %s for /f %s in ('dir /b /s *.dll') do regsvr32 /s %s --------------- First command will recompile all the mof fils under the WBEM folder --------------- Second command will register all the .dlls under the WBEM folder 2. Verified the WMI permission under DCOMCNFG ------------------------------------------ Default WMI DCOM Settings: ------------------------------------------ Modifying the default WMI DCOM Settings can also cause a wide range of problems.
