Perfdisk Event ID 2001.

[Frank Smith]

I am getting the following in my event logs.

Unable to read the disk performance information from the
system. Disk performance counters must be enabled for at
least one physical disk or logical volume in order for
these counters to appear. Disk performance counters can be
enabled by using the Hardware Device Manager property
pages. Status code returned is data DWORD 0.

I can not find anywhere in Device Manger to enable this.

If I type DiskPerf i get.

Physical Disk Performance counters on this system are
currently set to start at
boot.

So I suspect they are enabled. So why the Warning messages?
