Hi

I have beentrying to add a user defined counter so that it can be added
through perfmon to monitor certain parameters. With a 32 bit dll in the
SysWOW64 directory, i am able to add this counter in the 32 bit perfmon
(c:\winnt\syswow64\perfmon.exe). However, when i converted this dll to a 64
one and placed it in the system32 directory, i am unable to add the counter
from the 64 bit perfmon (Start->Run->Perfmon). However, i am certain the
counter seems to have been loaded, as my counter is listed in the registry
entry (HKLM\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\ Perflib\009 -
Counter/Help values).

Any ideas on why we are unale to plug in a 64 bit dll (associated with a 64
bit driver) with the 64 bit version of Perfmon? I am using Microsoft Windows
XP Professional x64 edition Verison 2003, Service Pack 1. I have used
WindowsXP 64 bit build environment from the Platform SDK kit to build my 64
bit dll.
