Measureware for SQL server 2000 - any experiences?

Hi everyone,
Hope you can help me here please. We are going to stress test a VB.NET
coded application (a web service to be exact) that pulls from a SQL
server 2000 database.
I am looking for some nice free measureware that we can install easily
on the Server that will show some nice graphs on things like:
1. CPU usage
2. Memory usage
3. Read/Writes etc
4. etc/etc...
Does anyone out there have any nice
recommendations/ideas/suggestions/user experiences that thay would like
to share?
Any comments - greatly welcomed.
Cheers,
Al.> I am looking for some nice free measureware that we can install easily

The Windows perfmon utility provides these metrics and much more and is
included free with the OS. Is there something lacking?
Hope this helps.
