Application Log

[Guest]

On a 2K Server my Application Log reads 1088 events, but the screen is blank.
If I save the App. Log I can open it on a remote machine, and view all
events. Can anyone tell me why it is blank on the server that is generating
the events.

Thanks

The temporary fix;
You might try changing the file properties to "Overwrite as needed"

Then; 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.

The more permanent fix;
