error occurs when using wmi module in child thread

[Chen Houwu]

------------------sample code begin-------------------------

import threading

import wmi

def run(*args):
	c = wmi.WMI ()
	memory=c.Win32_LogicalMemoryConfiguration()[0]
	info='Total Virtual Memory: '\
		+str(int(memory.TotalVirtualMemory)/1024)\
		+'MB'
	print info

print  "Begin run() in main thread"
run()

print "Begin run() in child thread"
thread=threading.Thread(target=run)
thread.start()


------------------sample code end---------------------------

------------------debug info begin--------------------------

Begin run() in main thread

------------------info I have found-------------------------

exception raised at:
file: Python24\Lib\site-packages\win32com\client\__init__.py
line: 88
code: moniker, i, bindCtx = pythoncom.MkParseDisplayName(Pathname)
context:

def Moniker(Pathname, clsctx = pythoncom.CLSCTX_ALL):
  """
    Python friendly version of GetObject's moniker functionality.
  """
  moniker, i, bindCtx = pythoncom.MkParseDisplayName(Pathname)
  dispatch = moniker.BindToObject(bindCtx, None,
pythoncom.IID_IDispatch)
  return __WrapDispatch(dispatch, Pathname, clsctx = clsctx)

I have compaired the 'Pathname' parameter between main thread and child
thread
when running, they are the same.

How can I solve the problem?
Thanks
