Some third party programs can corrupt the registry settings for performance counters.
The issue has been seen with "Symantec Embedded Database" which adds a sem5 entry in "Performance Counter" section of the agent configuration.

Run the lodctr program from Microsoft. They describe it like this
Registers new Performance counter names and Explain text for a
service or device driver, and saves and restores counter settings
and Explain text.
"lodctr /r " will restore as mush as possible.
Before you can see a change in the SysOrb web interface the agent must be rescanned.
