Dr Watson has now a more user friendly interface and can do more diagnosis that you thought. Dr Watson will generate a snapshot or a rough "image" of what your current system looks like. Then, it will report whether there are anything unusual about your system. Amazingly, this useful utility is well hidden under your C:\Windows\System directory. To launch Dr Watson:

Select Run and type: drwatson.exe

Dr Watson will also intercept any errors like GPF faults under Windows and crash-proof your system. Create a shortcut to Dr Watson and add it to your Start up folder for more system stability.
