    <p>A number of programs are failing with this error eg, MSinfo32, AS SSD, Samsung Magician etc. I have tried all the following actions to no avail:</p> <ol> <li>Repaired W7 Ultimate SP1 OS using the Upgrade option with a W7 Ultimate SP1 cd.</li> <li>Run SFC /Scannow - no errors.</li> <li>Checked that the WMI service is running - ok.</li> <li>Re-registered all the dll's in c:\windows\system32\wbem.</li> <li>Re-compiled all the mof and mfl files in c:\windows\system32\wbem.</li> <li>Ran WMIDiag.vbs. The report highlighted some 40 (WBEM_E_NOT_FOUND) errors - no different to the report from another W7 ultimate machine where WMI works ok.</li> <li>Registered the system.management.instrumentation.dll with: "regasm %systemdrive%\program files\reference assemblies\microsoft\framework\v3.5\system.management.instrumentation.dll".</li> <li>Rebuilt the Repository numerous times.</li> <li>SystemInfo in CMD works fine and returns all system data ok. Msinfo32.exe doesn't.</li> <li><p>Interestingly, the following script returns the correct info:</p> <p>*strComputer = "." Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\" &amp; strComputer &amp; "\root\cimv2") Set colItems = objWMIService.ExecQuery("Select * from Win32_operatingsystem") For Each objItem In colItems Wscript.Echo "Name: " &amp; objItem.Name Next*</p></li> </ol> <p><strong>but</strong> the same query doesn't work in Paessler WMITest.exe - where I get the same 0x80041013 error! So it seems WMI itself is working normally but not when called from, say, MSinfo32.</p> <p>No WMI error in Event Viewer for startup.</p> <p>Any ideas of where to go from here?</p> <p>Andrew</p>
