For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking support questions. Thank you for your interest in PHP. winmgmts://./root/cimv2 is not a valid com object name so COM couldn't instantiate it, therefore it threw an exception. You didn't catch the exception and all uncaught exceptions are fatal. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-09-10 23:49:23] Michael dot Rivera at Ceridian dot com Description: ------------ When trying to call the com object winmgmt I get the following error.
