System.Management.WqlEventQuery

[IfYouSaySo]

I'm having problems with the following code below. The call to ServiceWatcher.Start is throwing a "Not found" exception. My googling has determined that something about my query is incorrect. I'm not sure what about it is wrong though...

[SIZE=2][COLOR=#0000ff]Dim[/COLOR][/SIZE][SIZE=2] scope [/SIZE][SIZE=2][COLOR=#0000ff]As [/COLOR][/SIZE][SIZE=2][COLOR=#0000ff]New[/COLOR][/SIZE][SIZE=2] ManagementScope([/SIZE][SIZE=2][COLOR=#800000]"\\.\root\CIMV2"[/COLOR][/SIZE][SIZE=2])[/SIZE]
