Need some ideas here;

1. Event.msc will not open from a CLEAN INSTALL

2. Vista Will not install any updates or programs

For the record: MSFT, why add it if it dont work?

 1) Used msconfig to switch to safe mode boot
 2) Booted to safe mode
 3) ran cmd.exe as an administrator
 4) typed "cd C:\Windows\System32\LogFiles\WMI"
 5) typed "rename RtBackup RtBackup2"
 6) Used msconfig to switch to normal boot mode
 7) Reboot and found event viewer working
 
I find this not useful as it says; {access is denied}

trying;

Then try;

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2509997

For severe cases/method:

need to edit the registry:

Open Registry Editor:
GO to HKLM/Components

Export the Component to the desktop;
then delete any values except

PublisherPolicyChangeTime
StoreArchitecture
StoreFormatVerion

My Windows repair tool should fix those :wink:

Hi, getting back to our other issues :)

I did run some of the programs, however, still some severe issues.

We need rebuild the WMI. can you help with that :)
Event viewer will not load

Security Essentials still has some issues loading again.
re-stalling MSE is a big headache...
running the msiexec /regserver command to see if that solves it before try to re-stall

Shane:
Is this the same machine you had bad sectors with or a different machine?
