I am a first time user (no previous version installed). Downloaded latest 5.5.9 from the download page. The Server service fails to start on Windows XP Service Pack 3 (up to date with all the pathes). I did a reboot after installation was finished. I read the other forum post to run the service as a local admin user instead of SYSTEM but the result is the same. I can see in the Service Manager that the service is not started. When I try to start it, it takes about 2 minutes trying to start it and then fails. Any suggestions?

Can you please test this version?

If it does not work please send log_serverDATE.txt to support@visualcron.com

Same issue with that version.

I have attached the log file.

Thanks

This indicate that WMI (Windows Management Instrumentation) is broke or access is changed in some way.

Please check this url for repairing:

Another thing you should check is which is the WMI root path. It can be seen in the WMI properties (Administrative tools)
