WMI corrupt!!

[JDG]

My network is down currently as it seems my WMI has
become corrupted. Rather than do a system restore and
loose data, does anyone know another way of either
restoring or fixing or getting a new WMI for windows XP
home edition???

Any help much appreciated.

Try this

1. open a command prompt
2. "cd /d %windir%\system32\wbem"
3. "mofcomp hnetcfg.mof"
4. If it succeeds, then try the advanced tab again. If it fails, keep
reading
5. Read the follow the instructions here:
