Microsoft is very vague on this stating to call them for a
hotfix. I'm not concerned about the hotfix I just want to
know what is causing this to happen. Has anyone
encountered this issue?
 
Doubtful they'll tell us why. 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;
