You don't say what the error is (and your snippet doesn't run without
some alterations) so would you mind showing just enough code for
the error to occur plus a cut-and-paste of the traceback?

The wmi module is pure Python, relying only on Python & the pywin32
extensions. If you have both of those installed as 64-bit you can
just drop the wmi.py module into the right place and go from there.
