  • Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0
This article was previously published under Q241386

SYMPTOMS

When you start the Performance Monitor tool and attempt to add counters to a chart, you may receive the following error message:
Can not find Snmpapi.dll

CAUSE

This behavior can occur if you have only the NWLink protocol installed in Windows NT 4.0. When you install the TCP/IP protocol, the Snmpapi.dll file is copied to the %SystemRoot%\System32 folder.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this issue, manually copy the Snmpapi.dll file to the %SystemRoot%\System32 folder from the Windows NT 4.0 CD-ROM, and then reapply any installed service pack.
