Windows performance counters disabled on the server.
Make sure Windows performance counters are enabled on the server.
To enable performance counters, you need to use a utility from Microsoft. Install the Windows 2000 Resource Kit Tool : Extensible Performance Counter List (exctrlst.exe) utility which can be downloaded from:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?displaylang=en&familyid=7FF99683-B7EC-4DA6-92AB-793193604BA4
After installing on the server, run the C:\Program Files\Resource Kit\exctrlst.exe binary. Check that for every performance counter, the check box is checked. Meaning click on every performance counter and check that the checkbox is checked for every one.
