I am having a problem viewing the Event Viewer. This is what happens when I click on the Event Viewer. Error Message – Event Log Service is unavailable. Verify that the service is running. Okay, so I go to the Services area. I look for Windows Event Log click on start and another Error Message – Windows could not start the Windows Event log service on (Server Name). Error 4201: The Instance name passed was not recognized as valid by a WMI data provider.
I have try one or two troubleshooting steps but still having problems getting it to work again… Any solutions to get this working again would be great…
