I currently don't have Windows installed so I can't try this myself. But
a little bit of googling suggests that the log files you are seeing are
database checkpoint files. It seems that Exchange uses this database
format and comes with some utilities that allow you to peek into the
files. However, Windows 2000 also uses them for Active Directory and
seems to have some limited tools on board as well. The following article
gives a bit of details:

According to the article, you might want to try the NTDSUTIL utility and
see what you can get. Microsoft also gives some information on how to
use it:

Either way, the hundreds of checkpoints indicate that something is going
wrong with some database during installation.
By the way, is it just me or are the files actually empty (besides the
header of course)? They compress so well because they are just full of
zero bytes.
