Nothing in Event Viewer

I have a Windows 2000 Advanced Server that is a Domain Controlller. When I use Event Viewer I don not see any events recorded in any of the logs. Every log shows 0 events. I have checked the setting to “View all Records” and everything else that I can think of to no avail. It is very hard to troubleshoot issues when your event viewer doesn’t work. Any suggestions from anyone would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
