Error code, 800A03EA occurs when you execute a VBScript. This is a
compilation error, therefore check your syntax especially ampersands and commas.
The Symptoms You Get
The script does not execute as you had hoped. Instead you get a message
box like this picture:
The Cause of Error 800A03EA
Your VBScript contain an incorrect character, or possibly an omission. Note: The clue Source: Microsoft VBScript compilation error, means it is a syntax error rather than a logical error.
The Solution to Syntax Error
In the case of Error 800A03EA, the error message really will guide you to the solution. Firstly check the line number, secondly count along the number of letters and spaces indicated by Char: (58 in
my example). If you are experienced with VBScript, check the syntax of your script, for example, look for missing syntax e.g _ (underscore) was required in this instance.
If you are still stuck
then a good script editor really would help this type of problem because it color codes the commands. Free download of OnScript.

Guy Recommends: A Free Trial of the Network Performance Monitor
(NPM)
SolarWinds'
Orion performance monitor
will help you discover what's happening on your network. This
utility will also guide you through troubleshooting; the dashboard will
indicate whether the root cause is a broken link, faulty equipment or
resource overload.
What I like best is the way NPM suggests solutions to network
problems. Its
also has the ability to monitor the health of individual VMware
virtual machines. If you are interested in troubleshooting, and creating
network maps, then I recommend that you try NPM now.
Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) is one of the hidden
treasures of Microsoft operating systems. Fortunately, SolarWinds
have created the
WMI Monitor so that you can examine these gems of
performance information for free. Take the guess work out of which
WMI counters to use for applications like Microsoft Active Directory,
SQL or Exchange Server.
Thus utility makes it easy to check the health of a router or firewall. Check the real-time performance and availability statistics for any device
on your network.
