Hello folks,

confirming.

Interestingly even for Windows there are numerous reports about this issue -
although locale related (search for "Microsoft SQL 2008 Setup: Performance
Counter Registry Hive consistency check failed").

The sub-installer tries to read the registry configuration data for the Windows
Performance Library which is obviously missing in Wine.

The sub-installer and some components are mixed/managed code.

Unless there is some work on this, namely the perflib part of advapi32 you
might get around by faking the registry keys.

Here is link to a diagram that shows how perfdata consumers, the registry, PDH,
and performance DLLs and application providers work together:

(just to get the big picture).
