As of a couple of days ago windows has not been able to reconize any of my
hardware devices including ethernet card, sound card etc. The first thing I
notice when windows boots as well, is the normally blue windows xp toolbar is
white. Under system information it states that it cannot access the windows
management instrumentation software, windows management files may be moved or
missing. Is there any way I can fix this problem before I have to reinstall
windows?

First thing I'd do is run SFC /SCANNOW

and insure the proper files are available.
 
I have had the same problem as you for months, this was the thing that
did the trick for me:

try these commands from Start/Run:

regsvr32 %Windir%\system32\wbem\wbemprox.dll
regsvr32 %Windir%\system32\wbem\wbemcore.dll
regsvr32 %Windir%\system32\wbem\wbemsvc.dll
regsvr32 %Windir%\system32\wbem\fastprox.dll

Now you can check your system info :-)
