Murphy's LAW :rolleyes: Isn't it :)

The one common error is WinMgmt - which is Windows Management - Meaning you have a software problem ,not a hardware ( thats how I read it)
The error code 0x80041001 is a general one, meaning could be multi reasons.

Most of the articles I have found relate to Server 2003, WMI appears to be corrupted on your PC though.

Found This Forum (www.pcreview.co.uk) Possible fix in Post 6 ??

EDITED: Just found This Article (windowsxp.mvps.org) BETTER choice I think - look at Windows XP SP2

629149 2008-01-17 00:19:00 Thanks for everyones' helpful suggestions and ideas regarding this problem but I believe that I've finally resolved the matter -- a new power cord is seemingly all it took!
I had previously been using the power cable the my mate had been using with his old PC before I built this new one.

The PC has now been running without crashing/restarting at all for 16+ hours over 2 days.

You learn something new every day ...
