Event Viewer errors

[Greg]

Hello all,

On a couple of our Windows 2000 servers, when we open the
event viewer and search any of the logs (system,
security, or application), nothing opens up. Is this a
corrupt file? Has anyone else encountered this before and
what can we do to fix this situation?

Thanks for your help.

Sincerely,

Greg

Thanks Dave,

Worked just as you described. The funny thing was that we
always change the setting to "overwrite as needed" simply
to avoid any complications.

Based on what you sent to me with the hotfix info, it
look as if this is a known issue. If this happens again,
I know where to go.

Thanks again for your time especially on a Saturday!!!
