How can use 2 instance of SSRS?(WMI error code 80040219)

When I try to connect through SQL Server Management Studio,
the browser in the connect dialog can see the Reporting Services 2005 instance,
but when I try to connect, I get an error dialog with the message,
"An Unknown error has occured in WMI provider. error code 80040219."

it gives me no options for which instance to access
and connects to the default instance.
How do I connect to a 2nd named instance of SSRS via Management Studio?

i must use 2 different instance. (ex : 1) default instance 2) named instance) on the same physical server.
physical server os is cluster.
so i cant't remove one instance.

Hi Jisungmon,

If you have installed on your machine named <Machine_Name> a second instance of Reporting Services named <Named_Instance>, you can connect to it using SQL Management Studio by following these steps:

- launch SQL Management Studio

- for Server type select: Reporting Services

- for Server name type: <Machine_Name>\<Named_Instance> ; or you can select <Browse for more ...>, expand the Reporting Services node, and select the same name from the list provided to you, then press OK

- for Authentication select what you prefer and eventually specify the parameters

- press Connect

Please let me know whether this is working for you.
