No access to system information
Hi,
I am using an IBM clone P4 a couple years old 1.7ghz bare bone system with xp home installed and all critical updates installed except last couple of weeks. I am getting a message that tells me that I need to ask the system administrator to allow me access priviledges to the information I was seeking. How does something like this change? Is it an side effect of Windows updates or did Aol change another Dynamic link library with out asking, or worse yet is it caused by a buggy symantic driver for norton kamakazi utilities? Has anybody dealt with this minor issue before, it is just annoying at this point since it does not stop my pc from functioning. Please advise, I thank you for your advice in advance Cheers, Tony |

No access to system information
From http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_abc.htm
[["Can't collect information Access denied to Windows Management Instrumentation server on this computer. Have an administrator change your access permissions." Suggestions and Checkpoints: Go to Start/Run and type in: services.msc. Scroll down to: Windows Management Instrumentation and make sure the Service is set to Automatic. Go to Start/Run/CMD and type in: net stop winmgmt. Then delete the %windir&\system32\wbem\repository directory. Once done go back to Start/Run/CMD and type in: net start winmgmt If that doesn't help, try this: Open a Command Prompt and type "winmgmt /clearadap" to clear prior WMI/resyncperf information from the registry. Then type "winmgmt /resyncperf" to register the system performance libraries with WMI again.]] -- Hope this helps. Let us know.
