System Event Log

Our Windows NT 4.0 spk 6a server System Event log has stopped logging events.
Log is set to 32000 KB and overwrite as needed. This started a month ago and the server has been up for 61 days?? Both the Security and Application logs are OK.

The file may be corrupt. Control Panel|Services|Event Log Service|General,
set the "Startup Type:" to "Disabled" restart the pc, then delete (or move)
the corrupt SysEvent.Evt from %systemroot%\system32\config then set the
Event Log Service "Startup Type:" back to "Automatic", restart for effect.
