Guest Timothy Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 Hello All, Trying to troubleshoot some issues with a Windows 2003 server. Wanted to set up some counters in Performance Monitor only to discover that all of the names are missing. The counters just show up with numbers. Some research on the web led me to this: http://www.itnewsgroups.net/group/microsoft.public.windows.server.general/topic5739.aspx And this: http://technet2.microsoft.com/windowsserver/en/library/659ab40f-5ca0-4f4f-b003-8f3f3e4514091033.mspx?mfr=true On my system that PerfStringBackup.ini file is only 10k. I did the lodctr /s: command to save a copy of the currently active counters -- that file was only 8k. Tried to restore off the 10k backup with lodctr /r and that didn't fix anything. I suspect the PerfStringBackup.ini file got overwritten a long time ago (we don't need to use performance monitor all that often). Is there a clean copy of this somewhere that I could obtain to try and restore it off of that? Or am I barking up the wrong tree and should be looking elsewhere to solve this problem?
