I came into work today to notice that the Event Viewer is not logging anything in the Application Log. On other computers, the company applications or logged in the event viewer, except for this computer. Does anyone know why this way have happened?

this was a new installation computer, and the event viewer defaults were set to 512 KB and overwrite logs after 7 days. Our event viewer logs every instance of a certain application in the event viewer, and it filled rather quickly. But, because there was no files that were over 7 days old, it had nothing to overwrite.
