In NT4 this counter returned a value between 0 and 100. In 2000, the number
exceeeds 100. What is it acuatlly counting and why would a percentage stat
return more than 100?

I find that counter to be basically useless these days. I prefer the avg and
current disk queues for an indication of activity ove rthat.

click on the properties for that counter, your vertical scale is probably not
set to 100
