    Tasklist merely enumerates all the tasks that are running at present. You can do the same thing by pressing Ctrl-Alt-Delete and opening up Task Manager.

    This may also help.

    The problem is that DCOM is causing WMI to run at a wrong permission level.
    To fix this problem:
    1) Press Win+R while you are at the desktop to bring up the Run menu.
    2) Type in DCOMCNFG and press "Run"
    3) Something like this should come up:

    4) After that, right click on the "My Computer" text and hit “Properties"

    5) Set the appropriate permissions:

    6) Set the appropriate access permissions:

    7) Then press "OK" for everything and you should be done.
