winmngt

[Guest]

I've been having a problem with "System Information" ever since I upgraded my
Windows XP pro. I believe there is a file missssing. Is there a download
available that I could run to reinstall this module?
The error message below appears when I run Event Viewer.

WinMgmt could not initialize the core parts. This could be due to a badly
installed version of WinMgmt, WinMgmt repository upgrade failure,
insufficient disk space or insufficient memory.

Go to Start/Run/CMD and then run each of these hitting enter after each:

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

This may or may not repair the repository but will re-install wmi into the
registry.

Go to Start/Run/CMD and type in: net stop winmgmt. Then delete
the %windir&\system32\wbem\repository directory. Once done go back to
Start/Run/CMD and type in: net start winmgmt
