The WMI process is not starting or is corrupt. To reinstall the WMI files, click Start > Run and type in:

rundll32.exe setupapi,InstallHinfSection WBEM 132 %windir%\inf\wbemoc.inf

You will need a Windows XP CD.

Open the Control Panel, Administrative Tools, Computer Services, Computers, My Computer, DCOM Config. Click yes on any prompts to record AppID data

Click Start / Run and type wbemtest, click connect twice to confirm WMI is working properly. If it is not, Restart and retest.
 
Tony,

You use a Windows XP CD for a WBEM reinstall on Windows Server 2003?
