We would need to compare the input buffers used in each case for those WMI methods. If you can find the MOF data, you may be able to get a better idea of what those methods are expecting as input. Not something I've done myself, but there are a few tools out there to extract the MOF data, and you can readily find tutorials on how to use that data from within Windows.
