Did as you suggested about WBEM, and that seemed to make the CIMOM error
message finally go away. HOWEVER, FS2004 still won't start up. It just
freezes at start-up. HOWEVER, I also just discovered that FS2004 can be
started in SAFE MODE, which seems to work. But I still don't now why it won't
start up NORMALLY. I guess I need someone with FS2004 expertise now. Thanks
for your help.
