How do you disable DrWatson in Win2k???

[Yoshi64]

When a program crashes in Win2k (doesn't happen often, but it does happen from time to time), it seems like Win2k writes the whole RAM to the harddrive. I can see that is is running DrWatson, and you can't shut it down.
I guess it's some kind of debugging-crap, but I wanna disable it!

I don't think you can, watson dumps the memory to hd so you can figure out what went wrong (like anyone does that - well sys ops yes butt...)

Can't you just delete the drwatson-file, or will it screw up all windows?

You can't disable it, but it usually asks before it makes a crash log.
