Thanks Wesley,
I had already found that article and followed each of the steps in it. None
made any difference.
Here is the WMI report:

missing.
..1193 - This will prevent any script and MMC application asynchronous
callbacks to this machine.

..1202 => If the WMI service is stopped, the listed service(s) will have to
be stopped as well.
..1203 Note: If the service is marked with (*), it means that the
service/application uses WMI but
..1204 there is no hard dependency on WMI. However, if the WMI
service is stopped,
..1205 this can prevent the service/application to work as expected.

..1246 => This error is not a WMI error. It is typically due to:
..1247 - The user running WMIDiag has not enough privileges or rights to
issue requests
..1248 against software components exposing information through WMI.
..1249 => Ensure that no third party applications installing additional
WMI providers have
..1250 specific security requirements (e.g. group membership,
privileges, etc ...)
..1251 - The 'Impersonate Client after authentication' Local Policy is
disabled or the
..1252 'SERVICE' account has been removed from that Local Policy.
..1253 => You must add the 'SERVICE' account to the 'Impersonate Client
after authentication'

..1255 By default, this Local Policy includes the 'SERVICE' account.
..1256

The WMI, Network Connections and DCOM Server Process Launcher services are
all set to auto and are running. I'm also not experiencing any of the
symptons that you listed. Defrag, Disk Management, Windows Firewall and
Software installations are all working. The error message for WMI
actions is "Access is Denied" not "Class not registered".
Any other ideas.
Thanks.

Start the Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) service, the Network
Connections service and DCOM Server Process Launcher. Also set them all
to Automatic.
You can get online w/o the Network Connections service running, but the
Network Connections folder won't work right.
[[Note the following things will fail if this service is not running:
• The builtin defrag will fail to work, and if running defrag from the
command line one gets this error:
Windows cannot connect to the Disk Defragmenter engine
• System Information (MsInfo32) will fail to work and give this error:
Can't Collect Information
A network error occurred in connecting to Windows Management
Instrumentation. Ensure that your network connection is
functioning properly.
• If Windows Firewall is enabled, then it will fail to start and all
incomming traffic will be blocked. More Info MS KB 892199
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/892199
• Disk Management will fail and give this error:
The RPC server is unavailable
• The install of new applications will fail and give this error:
The InstallShield Engine (iKernel.exe) could not be launched.
The RPC server is unavailable. ]]

DCOM Server Process Launcher

[[Note if this service is stopped, it will at least have the following
effects:
Actions that requires WMI will give errors like:
Interface: Class not registered
Win32: The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or
because it has no enabled devices associated with it
* Unable to see Service Dependencies using Services.msc
* Unable to select Properties for the Computer Management (Local) using
CompMgmt.msc
* Unable to see System Information using MsInfo32
* (WinXP) Will experience long delays with System restore (Or not work at
all) ]]

Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI)
http://smallvoid.com/tweak/winnt/service/wxyz.html#WINMGMT
[[CAUSE
The error message occurs if the Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI)
service is not started. This can occur if the service is disabled, if a
dependent service is not started, or if a problem is preventing the WMI
service from starting. The System Information utility will be able to
collect information after the WMI service is started. ]]

In MOW <
[email protected]> hunted and pecked:
I have just upgraded a laptop from Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 to
Windows XP Service Pack 2 and since doing so I cannot get access to WMI
data. I've also noted the following symptoms:
- Can't see any Network Connections in the Network Connections folder.
- Receive an error 0x800A0046 when running Windows Updates.
- Receive the message WMI: Access is denied when looking at service
dependencies.
- Receive the message "Can't collect information" when using MSinfo.
- Receive the message "WMI: Access is Denied" when looking at the
properties of WMI Control under Computer Management.
So far I've:
- Done everything in Knowledge Base articles 254631 and 823775
- I've run the command "rundll32.exe setupapi,InstallHinfSection WBEM
132 %windir%\inf\wbemoc.inf" to rebuild the WMI database.
- I've reregistered all the WMI components.
- I've deleted the repository folder (and saw that it was recreated).
- I've checked that the SERVICE account has the "Impersonate a client
after authenitcation" permission.
- I've checked that all necessary services are running with the correct
credentials.
- I've checked the DCOM default impersonate and authenication levels.
- I've removed the machine from the domain.
- I've checked and compared the registry permissions to a working
machine using AccessEnum for SysInternals.
- I've run an inplace upgrade (repair) install, starting from Windows
and starting from booting from the CD.
I'm pretty sure this is simply a permissions problem, but can't for the
life of me find where the problem is. Is there anything else to try
before a clean install?
Thanks
