WMI and WinPE


Question:

I am attempting to utilize the bios.wbt code posted on the tech support database within Windows PE.

I receive an error 1727 COM: Invalid Class String

On Line:

objLocator = ObjectCreate("WbemScripting.SWbemLocator")
I am using winbatch version 2004E. Does anyone have any idea the cause of this error?

Answer:

Is there built in support for WMI on WinPE machines? I belive is an optional, non-default component of a WINPE build. You may need to figure out how to add WMI to your WINPE Build. Maybe search Google for WMI WINPE

User Reply:

It looks like there isn't a stable plugin yet available for the Bart PEBuilder variant of WinPE. Apparently WMI support is available from M$ in their latest flavor of PE, but that is only available to certain vendors (or something like that).
