Why can’t I run network inventory from Windows 2003?
Solution: In Windows 2003 the WMI Windows Installer Provider is an optional component. To install this provider, open the Control Panel’s Add/Remove Programs section and click Add/Remove Windows Components. Select the Management and Monitoring Tools checkbox, then click Details. Mark the WMI Windows Installer Provider checkbox, and click OK.
