The Accessories> System Tools>System Information program displays this error
message when started:

CAN'T COLLECT INFORMATION
Failed connection to this computer. Check to see that the Winmgmt service is
running.

The message is essentially nonsens, since my machine is a standalone
computer, and should not connect to any other machine for information. The
processes list in the Task Manager has no process called "Winmgmt", so what
can the cause of the problem be? (I have XP Build 2600 xpsp2.030422-1633:
Service Pack 1)
