Photon server on Windows server 2008 R2

Options
Photon server runs only for few seconds and stops on Windows server 2008 R2. It seems to be the issue with Performance counters. I tried removing the counters, reinstalled them. Din't help. I even set the flag in CounterPublisher.dll.config. Din't help. Below is the log.
