I'm having the same problem as of sun evening, with a new vista install. no rating, cpu or ram info showing up in properties, and nothing in sys info. just sat can't collect information. some google searches mentioned Stopping the Management Instrumentation service in Services, then deleting files in system32/Wbem/Repository. then restarting the computer. this did not work, not for me anyway. |

| | RE: System Information Exactly same issue here, directly connected to turning UAC off. Nothing on the net that I've found resolves this issue, and no one seems to have the answer. |
