W2K freezes on me and the error log reads : WINMGMT Event 37 WMI ADAP was unable to load winspool.drv performance libary due to and unknown problem with the libary 0x0. Second message is the same but has perfproc.dll instead of winspool.

WMI ADAP Errors with Event ID 37

These events can be logged because of a problem in the WMI Performance Library Dredger. In certain situations, the dredger incorrectly determines that a library is invalid even though the counter works correctly.
To resolve this issue, run the following command on the computer to dredge the status data again
winmgmt /clearadap or winmgmt /resyncperf -p processID where processID is the processID of the running WINMGMT process.
