Event ID 7032 - Unexpected Termination of the Windows Management Instrumentation Service

Hi,

I've just started getting this error when I boot up my XP Pro SP2 machine:

--------------------

Event ID 7032

The Service Control Manager tried to take a corrective action (Restart the
service) after the unexpected termination of the Windows Management
Instrumentation service, but this action failed with the following error:
An instance of the service is already running.

--------------------

I also get this event from the Visual Studio Debugger:

--------------------

Event ID 4096

An unhandled win32 exception occurred in svchost.exe [1240]. Just-In-Time
debugging this exception failed with the following error: Debugger could not
be started because no user is logged on.

--------------------

After all this, if I check out services.msc, there's a heap of services that
are supposed to start automatically that haven't started (e.g. Computer
Browser, Server).

I did a bit of reading and thought that I might have had a corrupted WMI
database. I tried running these commands to rebuild the database:

winmgmt /clearadap
winmgmt /kill
winmgmt /unregserver
winmgmt /regserver
winmgmt /resyncperf

....this hasn't fixed my problem however.

If anyone could offer some info on this issue, it would be greatly
appreciated.

Thx,
EightBall.

I am getting the same error messages. It appears to have been due to a
windows update as I removed all updates from the past 30 days that I could
find and the error went away. Now how to fix it without removing all the
updates, I apologize I dont know, but I am applying each update one at a time
to figure out the problem update.

Jon,

Were you able to figure out which update was causing the problem?

I am having the same problem on one of our PCs. I don't understand what you
did to fix this? I looked on the website and could not find anything.
Could you please let me know how you resolved this issue?

Thanks.
