Jessica

For the past week when I turn on on my computer I get the following
Application Error: wmiprvse.exe

Instruction at 0x03b19020 memory could not be written 0x0000000 click ok to
debug or cancel to terminate the program

I have no idea what "program" it is referencing and I do not know how to fix
it.
Help! Thanks...

Stopping and Starting the WMI Service

If you are experiencing problems with the WMI service you might need to
manually stop and restart the service. Before doing so you should enable
WMI’s verbose logging option. This provides additional information in the WMI
error logs that might be useful in diagnosing the problem. To enable verbose
logging using the WMI control, do the following:
1.Open the Computer Management MMC snap-in and expand Services and
Applications.
2.Right-click WMI Control and click Properties.
3.In the WMI Control Properties dialog box, on the Logging tab, select
Verbose (includes extra information for Microsoft troubleshooting) and then
click OK.
Alternatively, you can modify the following registry values:
•Set HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\WBEM\CIMOM\Logging to 2.
•Set HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\WBEM\CIMOM\Logging File Max Size
to 4000000.
After enabling verbose logging try stopping the WMI service by typing the
following
Open a run command prompt:
net stop winmgmt

If the net stop command fails you can force the service to stop by typing
this:
winmgmt /kill

Important. If you are running Windows XP or Windows Server 2003 the WMI
service runs inside a process named Svchost; this process contains other
services as well as WMI. Because of that, you should not try to stop
Svchost;
if you succeed, you’ll stop all the other services running in that process
as
well. Instead, use net stop winmgmt or winmgmt /kill in order to stop just
the WMI service.

You can then restart the service by typing the following command:
net start winmgmt

If the service does not restart try rebooting the computer to see if that
corrects the problem.
If it does not, then continue reading.
