WMI Errors
We have been seeing a number of newly loaded Dell servers showing the following error:
"WMI encountered a problem and needed to close."
These are machines that have been loaded with Windows 2003 Server, with SP1 slipstreamed into the install. I normally would suspect that to be the problem, however it is only the Dell machines showing the error.
It doesn't seem to cause any problems, but seeing messages like this make us nervous. Anyone have any ideas as to what could be the issue?

The only thing we can't do is to connect to WMI from scripting either .vbs or asp/aspx that fail to communicate with WMI, permission errors.
Running Windows Server 2003 Std with SP1 applied, this errors were showing before SP1.
Anyone has more on this?
