Perfdisk.dll problem

[Sad_user]

Hello All,

First of all happy new year.

I installed recently a server (DELL 2850) with Windows 2000 SP4, and
since the beginning I am affected by this bug
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/196712/en-us, so I had to remove the
perfdisk.dll from the performance counters in the registry (as
described in the kb).

Now I would like to be able to monitor my disk, but when I enable again
the dll counter in the registry, It seems to corrupt all the other
counters.
One of the resolution proposed by a HP technician, is to create the
performance counters (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/300956/) but
before this, I have to register again the diskperf.dll; so I did a
"regsrv32.exe c:\winnt\system32\perfdisk.dll", then I received this
message:
C:\WINNT\System32\perfdisk.dll was loaded but the DllRegisterServer
entry point was not found. DllRegister may not be exported, or a
corrupted version of C:\WINNT\System32\perfdisk.dll may be in memory,
consider using Pview

My questions are :
1°) Is someone had the same problem with the perfdisk counters ? How
can I resolve this issue ?
2°) What could the cause of the problem with DllRegisterServer ?

Thanks to provide me any hints

Best Regards,

2.) As far as I know it isn't a self registering DLL. In other words the DLL
doesn't export the DLLRegisterServer, DllUnregisterServer functions.
