Resolution
Back up the Registry before performing any edits (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/322756/ How to back up and restore the registry in Windows)
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/248993/en-us
1. Start Regedit.exe. (You cannot use Regedt32.exe because it does not allow searching for registry values.)
2. Click to select the following keyHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services
3. Select Find from the Edit menu.
4. In the Find What field, type Disable Performance Counters.
5. Click Find Next. This will locate a Performance key that may have this Registry value set to 1.
6. If the Registry value is set to 1, set the value to 0 or delete the Registry value.
7. Press F3 to find the next occurrence of this Registry value.
8. Repeat the previous two steps until there are no Performance keys which have the Disable Performance Counters value set to 1.
