On a Vista machine, I'm initiating a backup from a .Net 2.0 based application, and we get the following error:

<exceptionString>System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80040154): Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {A8F03BE3-EDB7-4972-821F-AF6F8EA34884} failed due to the following error: 80040154. at System.Management.MTAHelper..cctor()</exceptionString>
<message>Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {A8F03BE3-EDB7-4972-821F-AF6F8EA34884} failed due to the following error: 80040154.</message>

The 80040154 error is for file not registered or not found. I have registered both of these files with the same result:
C:\Windows\system32\mscoree.dll
C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\WMINet_Utils.dll

Anyone have any ideas?
