Unable to collect NUMA physical memory utilization data and other performance counter issues.

On a development box I started getting the message "Unable to collect NUMA physical memory utilization data. The first four bytes (DWORD) of the Data section contains the status code." This message is sourced from PerfOS, which makes me think the performance counters have been damaged. Running

lodctr /R

twice at an admin prompt removed the error messages. This command attempts to rebuild the performance counters, which often become out of sync with installed and removed software packages.
