Help!

I have a stand-alone W23K file server that the logs, mainly system log,
keeps on corrupting. Eventually after a few days the rest of the logs would
corrupt also. I have done:

1) Disabled event log service, reboot
2) delete the existing *.evt files
3) Enable event log service, reboot
4) logs work fine for a while than it corrupts again!

The weir thing is that even if the logs are corrupted on the server itself,
they look okay viewing remotely.

If you have a 64 bit system, this may be of interest:

i've seen this on some w2k3 sp1 systems and the solution, as strange as
it sounds, was to change the NIC to Full Duplex...
see this thread for details:

don't think there is a HF yet.
