I have three servers where the event viewer is not
displaying the logs for application,security or system. I
do not get any error. I can save the logs and the logs
are about 1-2mb in size. I have other servers that have
larger logs and they are displaying. I have tried to
refresh.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

In Administrative tools -> Local Security Policy ->Local Policies, check if
the audit policies are set properly.
If they are disabled, then the machine is joined to a domain and you need to
manage settings from domain controller.
 
Why would the audit policies have anything to do with this?
I am not getting any errors, and on the other servers I
see the events just fine.

I have narrowed the problem down the the eventlog service,
sometimes, restarting it allows for the eventlog to be
displayed, but not always.

Any Ideas?
