Question : Event viewer not recording events anymore

The event viewer on my Windows Xp install has stopped recording events. It does record something, such as DCOM errors and some information on services, but very few events get recorded. Windows startup and shutdown are not recorded anymore, system errors aren't either.

I am not using filters by the way, the viewer is setup to show all events.

I have uploaded the logs to my site:

http://www.deathless.it/ProtectionEvents.txt
http://www.deathless.it/SystemEvents.txt

Does anyone know a way to fix the viewer?

Answer : Event viewer not recording events anymore

Could be that the event logs are corrupt.
Set the startup type of the Event Log Service to "Disabled", reboot.
Rename all .evt files in %Systemroot%\system32\config.
Set the startup type of the Event Log Service back to "Automatic", reboot.
Check the event logs.
