Double click "Windows Management Instrumentation" service
Set the startup type to "Automatic"

When was this problem first seen? It looks as if your system is infected by
a Malware of some kind. Though it's possible to reinstate the Windows
Management Instrumentation service using a REG file, it's better to do a
complete virus scan.

From another XP system running the same Service Pack level, open Regedit.exe
and export the following key to a reg file ("wmi.reg")

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\winmgmt

Then transfer the wmi.reg to the subject computer, and double-click it.
Reboot.

If that does not help, see the following page:

I got the file file from another windows xp sp2 computer and saved it as
wmi.reg. When I double clicked on it, all that happens is my computer opens
up a note pad file with this file in it. I also tried running a windows
diagnose utility called WMIDiag.vbs by opening a run dialog and typing
WMIDiag.vbs in it, all that it did was to open a notepad file with this
script in it?
