Sometimes if pdh.dll is old Zabbix agent can not values of perfomance counters in some cases. This error can be looked:
3536:20120816:144507.447 Can't initialize performance counters "<computer_name>\UnknownPerformanceCounter\UnknownPerformanceCounter": 3. MSG 0x00000102 - Unable to find message text [3. MSG 0x0000013D - Unable to find message text [0x57]]
This error can be looked in zabbix_server.log as: 31330:20120830:142458.873 Agent item [perf_counter["\System\System Up Time"]] on host [<host_name>] failed: first network error, wait for 60 seconds 31391:20120830:142512.623 Agent item [perf_counter["\System\System Up Time"]] on host [<host_name>] failed: first network error, wait for 60 seconds In this case we should update pdh.dll to newer version: 5.0.2195.2668.

btw, it says at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/284996/en: "For Windows 2000-based systems, use the system-supplied Pdh.dll file. Do not install a new version of Pdh.dll over the system-supplied version. This will fail because of Windows File Protection." |

After this has been installed, the PDH.dll can be found in the x86 subfolder. The version of PDH.dll is 5.0.2195.2668. |
