label.dll displaying incorrect CPU load value Thread last updated on 2004-03-18 16:30:05

Posted by member 53 on 2004-01-02 06:42:16

Recently, label.dll started reporting -1% for the CPU load value. I have just completed a pretty major recovery of my system, so I'm sure it has something to do with that, but I'm not sure what. System specs:

Microsoft Windows XP Professional
Intel Celeron @ 1.4GHZ
label.dll v1.99
LiteStep 0.24.7 Beta 4

Any help would be greatly appreciated :)

beta f???

there have been multiple threads about this. search through the forum for the answer.

That is an F, isn't it? LOL, should have been a 4 of course. And as far as the problem goes, this morning it mysteriously fixed itself... *shrug*

PS - Search doesn't work right now: "Sorry for the inconvenience but searching the Forums will be unavailable for a bit while we upgrade."

Hi there,

check your event log for weirdo readings from perfmon. I had the same issue while once booting up; apparently perfnet was screwy and more or less disabled any perfmon readings by the system. Disabled the service that was acting up, problem solved.

Sorry I can't be more specific; I'm at my linux box right now.

Sounds like you may have deleted pdh.dll, which Label requires for CPU monitoring.

well, i have the same problem ... and i have that dll in the win/system32 dir!

what else could be the cause of this?
i thought about letting rainmeter handle this, but i cant get it to display some text outside its box already defined by the simplicity theme :/

Hate to bring this up from several months ago, but the problem started again, and it hasn't stopped.

In reference to nggalai's post, I'll confess ignorance:
1) Where would I find my event log?
2) What is perfmon?

And yes, pdh.dll is in the WINDOWS/system32/ directory.

Thanks for the help guys.
