Out of curiosity, how big is your log file?
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Dr Watson\drwtsn32.log

It's kinda big, but I don't think it's so big that it would crash it's self. You can rename it to drwtsn32.bak without worrying about breaking Windows. You may want to read it to see if you can discern which errors are filling it up. It might be the games, it might be part of windows, it might be system drivers.

If you want, you can do a generic aimless fix by reinstalling SP2, and updating your video and audio drivers. That will only help in the even that a system file has been replaced by a very old version.
