Perfmon Problem

[Charlie]

Ever since I installed XP I have found that perfmon=20
doesn't work. When I try to add a counter it only lists=20
the counter numbers rather than the names. I have tried=20
in vain to work this one out. The event log is below:

Event Type: Error
Event Source: LoadPerf
Event Category: None
Event ID: 3012
Date: 12/07/2003
Time: 15:46:50
User: N/A
Computer:=09
Description:
The performance strings in the Performance registry value=20
is corrupted when process Performance extension counter=20
provider. BaseIndex value from Performance registry is=20
the first DWORD in Data section, LastCounter value is the=20
second DWORD in Data section, and LastHelp value is the=20
third DWORD in Data section.

Hi Charlie,

The issue may be caused by the performance monitor error. We can refer to
the article to manually rebuild the performance counter.

300956 How to Manually Rebuild Performance Counter Library Values
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=300956

Note: the article is design for Windows 2000. We may need to modify some
place for the path.

If this still does not work, we need to repair the Windows to get the
Performance Monitor fixed.

Thanks for using Microsoft News Group!

Sincerely,
