Empty event logs in Windows 2000 Server SP4
If you are looking at your Event Viewer and your event logs have reached their max but you can't see any events this one's for you. This is a known problem and you can get a patch for it from Microsoft PSS (the contact info is contained in the KB Article):

As far as I can tell this problem seems to occur when you leave your event log properties set to their defaults. (IE: “Overwrite events older that n days“ and the system generates more than your maximum log size in n days.)... I don't want to steal all the glory for this post...I found my help via google:
