SQL Server Q&A

Symptoms
If you use a program that uses Performance Data Helper (PDH) APIs to collect the performance data of several instances of Microsoft SQL Server 2000 at the same time, an access violation may occur. For example, this problem occurs if you collect performance data from six or more instances of SQL Server. The performance data collection for the instances of SQL Server may also stop. Additionally, you may notice that the following registry key is created and the value of the registry key is set to 1:
HKey_Local_Machine\System\ControlSet001\Services\<InstanceOfSQLServer>\Performance\Disable Performance CountersNote The registry key is created for all the instances of SQL Server where the performance data is collected.
