WinMgmt.exe has generated errors and will be closed...

This is a discussion about WinMgmt.exe has generated errors and will be closed... in the Windows Hardware category; I just bought a Soundblaster Live!. After installing it WinMgmt. exe now performs an illegal operation every ~30sec. Downloaded and installed Live!Ware for Win2k, but that didn't help. So I had to disable Windows Management Information.

Anyone who has experienced the same problem, and now how to fix this?

-=[ Don't overclock and complain later about crashes, warning technically explicit, close your eyes before, sensitive persons do not read, it cause overrun of your brain, seasick etc ]=-
 
Yes, you are forcing way over the limit the second level cache that the line PII is runing at max 450Mhz/225MHz or 4.4ns, expected to work right at 500MHz/250Mhz or 4ns nothing more than that will work right.
That's why I bought a year a go a PII333MHz
the cache was running at 5.98ns,
which has a multiplier of 5 (5 x 66Mhz),
so if i run at 5 x 100Mhz no probs ( 4.0ns ).
The cache lucky me, is the same used on the PII 450MHz 4.44ns or a it's a bit more fast in order to work at 4.44ns. Thats why my overclock works right. You are on 3.87ns !!!!
Seems a little more, but is not.
And you are way over the cache limits.
The cache for the line PII333-450, will not go under 4.0ns without fail or miss data.
Go back now or you will get a cache burning and a in little time will be useless.

What kind of messed up reply is that compuman? hmm.. the server must be whacked..
 
anyways, I had a similar problem, caused by a scandisk check that had to truncate winmgmt.exe.. I ended up doing a repair install...
 
That's a bit drastic but it worked for me..
 
you can always try to get a copy of the winmgmt.exe and associated files from someone else and overwrite yours..

after reading your reply for like the 10th time i FINALLY realize you were basically saying
 
"DON'T OVERCLOCK"
 
But no where in your message did you actually SAY that, so All i saw when reading your reply was a bunch of numbers and you talking about cache multipliers etc...
 
I'm sorry for my reaction.. I simply thought your reply was for another thread...
 
but seriously though, you should be a little more concise next time to avoid confusion.
 
And I doubt it's an overclocking issue since it did occur with the install of the sblive! and i (assume) he's been running his computer like that for a while now...

Sorry, people I got excited when I wet my pants after my first sucessful overclock on my PII333..
all data is involuntarily over-redundant.
Typical of a techno-junkie like me.
I love to study and project future outcomes
so I can almost have the most of the hardware in the future.
What else do you expect from someone who build his own hi-fi hi-power amplifiers and
loudspeaker sets, yeah I like it that way..
 
Sorry about the shoot out, I apology to your
dog, and to your aliens....
