Performance Counters Not Showing

[oppete]

We recently purchased ANTS memory profiler. I have version 7.4.0.41 installed on my machine. I've noticed that the performance counters graph at the top of the screen is not showing anything. When I view the program log I see the following repeated over and over for each of the performance counters selected (# Bytes in all Heaps, Private Bytes, Large Object Heap Size):

08 Nov 2012 10:33:34.670 [30] ERROR RedGate.Profiler.Engine.Startup.Counters.PerformanceCounterSource - Unable to create performance counter 'Large Object Heap size'. The reported exception indicates that this could be due to corrupted performance counter configuration: Input string was not in a correct format.
08 Nov 2012 10:33:34.671 [30] ERROR RedGate.Profiler.Engine.Startup.Counters.PerformanceCounterSource - Input string was not in a correct format.

I've tried running as admin with no luck. Any idea what this might be and how to fix it?

Thanks!
