There is no SP4 for Windows server 2003. Assuming Windows 2000 the files may
be corrupt. Control Panel|Administrative Tools|Services|Event Log
Service|General, set the "Startup Type:" to "Disabled" restart the pc, then
delete (or move) the corrupt *.evt file(s) from %windir%\system32\config
then set the Event Log Service "Startup Type:" back to "Automatic", restart
for effect.
