Performance Counters Missing

My SQL Server 2000 (SP2) performance counters are missing/corrupted. They
seem to be in the Performance COunter drop down, as a series of 4-digit
numbers. The SQL server runs on a active/passive Windows 2000
clusterconfiguration (W2K SP3). I've tried manually reloading them with
lodctr and the sqlctr.ini file looks clean. The other (passive) cluster
node doesn't have them either, but it also doesn't have the odd 4-digit
number entries in the drop down list of counters. Any help would be
appreciated.

numbered counters in the Performance Monitor Counter list (except for one,
listed as 0 - ZERO). However, the SQL counters are completely missing ...
any further ideas? Thanks again.

called for some scary registry manipulation in a whole lot of places. Is
there not some way to get a value to plug in just to the 009 branch? I found
a large number of last counter and last help fields throughout the registry
and got scared off. Where does a mere mortal go for help on this?
