console error via vCenter 4 server

Hi There,

We have a vCenter 4 server managing my ESX 4 U2 hosts. Everything was working until today. All of a sudden, i can no longer use console of my VM from my vCenter server. Following error displays everytime i click on console tab

"Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation".

When i right click VM and open console "Thje specified module could not be found. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007007E) and "object reference not set to an instance of an object" pops up.

I am able to connect vCenter from my desktop and VM Console is fine. Issue is only from my vCenter server, so certainly something has changed.

Appreciate your advise.

Have you tried reinstalling the client? Does the console work ok through web access?

Did you find a solution here. I installed vSphere client 5 and have the same result. I can Open Console on the (same) host from a Windows XP box, but not from my workstation, W7ProX64 box. I'm pretty sure that this is a client (local) issue versus a vmWare host problem.
