Hello everyone,
I'm trying to install Visual web developer 2010 express on my pc, but I keep getting this error ( can't remember exactly what it said) but it had to do with the SQL server express 2008 R2. So i tried to manually download that and see if that gave a error and it did:
Rule "Performance counter registry hive consistency" failed.
it linked me to a site of Microsoft, but there it said the information was not relevant anymore and had no link to other help (except the general support page).
I went searching on the web to find out how I could fix this but could not find a fix for windows 8 for this error, I did however found solutions for windows 7 and vista.

This site basically tells exactly what has to be done to counter this error (I think), but the problem is that I can't find these files:
"HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Perflib".
Help would be apprieciated a lot, since I'm in college and we're starting on a project this week and I'm far behind with experience in this language since my old laptop died on me.
Thanks in advance
