Shawn,I know the feeling of running on 9x box. I won't even say in public what I am running. eeek! I will be able to test this more thoroughly when I get into work.
Lonkero - have you had a chance to test this? 
Oh well - When I get into work, I will be downloading the WMI SDK from Microsoft.

And the tutorial - http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/default.asp?URL=/code/sample.asp?url=/msdn-files/027/001/574/msdncompositedoc.xml
Hopefully, this will get the answer.
Thanks!
