Performance Counters showing numeric values – Windows Server 2003 x64

Issue:

Perfmon on Windows 2003 x64 servers, the object counters are showing as numerical values instead of "processor", "memory" etc

 

Solution:

Make sure you have taken a full System Backup before trying the below mentioned steps.

On a 64-bit machine, there are two versions of "lodctr.exe"

- %windir%\system32
- %windir%\SysWow64

You have to run the 32bit lodctr.exe to reload the 32bit counters and the 64bit

"lodctr.exe /r "

Note: Without quotes “”

Reboot the server
