				| Hi, 
 I am installing MQ v5.1 on NT and got this message.  I couldn't find it listed (even in the online manuals). Does anyone know what it means ? (And what effect it has).
 
 AMQ4718 : Can't load performance counters
 
 Thanks,
 
 Tim Clarke,

				| This is either a permissions problem, or maybe, you have some other monitoring software active when doing the MQ install. 
 Take a look in the amqilogn.txt file (search for AMQIPERF.EXE) and post the relevent text.
 
 Cheers.

				| The error return code is a1 (decimal 161): 
 ERROR_BAD_PATHNAME: The specified path name is invalid.
 
 Does that give any clues.  I can't think of anything at this point.  Sorry.
 
 Cheers.

 |  I have had the same problem and the following procedure fixed it. You need to have CSD05 applied.
 
 Firstly you have to make sure you have the file amqmpecn.h in the same directory as AMQMPERA.ini . Should be in the MQM/uninst directory
 
 Procedure to be followed:
 
 1. Stop MQSeries
 2. Export (Save)  Registry Key:
 HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesMQSeriesServices (for backout reasons)
 
 3. Edit file MQMuninstAMQMPERA.ini
 change the line starting with "symbolfile" to say
 symbolfile=amqmpecn.h
 4. Open Command Prompt and change to directory
 5. MQMuninst and issue command
 lodctr AMQMPERA.ini
 6. Start MQSeries.....
