Wanda,

Dr Watson is the default debugging utiltiy that comes with the Operating System. When a program causes an exception
that it is not capable of handling itself then Dr Watson traps this information and displays a dialog to let you know the
program has had a problem. Dr Watson will also create an entry in a log file, drwtsn32.log, and normally it will create a
dump of the User Mode memory being used by the program that had the problem.

The question would be what program does the message say had the issue.
