WMI Failure: Class not Registered

Scott et al,

I followed the instructions in the link to no avail. I
checked the registry, the key still exists. When I run
wmic from the command line or try to connect to
root\cimv2 from within wbemtest, I still get an error
code 0x80040154, Class not registered, Facility =
Interface.

A search for the "fail" text in the logs yields the
following (note the timestamps in the setup.log are
earlier by an hour than those in the wmiadap.log. I
can't seem to erase the setup.log as it is in use by
another process.):

---------- SETUP.LOG

---------- WMIADAP.LOG

Any ideas?

Thanx,

Curtis
