You may want to explore the System.Diagnostics.EventLog class.

Sample:

System.Diagnostics.EventLog[] logs = EventLog.GetEventLogs();

            foreach (EventLog log in logs)
            {
                foreach (EventLogEntry entry in log.Entries)
                    Console.WriteLine(entry.Message);
            }

            }

hey thanx :)
Now using this code i can access all the errors and warnings invoked by the OS right.i wanted to make the system interacting rather than just giving msgs thru some boxes.

Also be sure to clean up after yourself. System.Diagnostics.EventLog implements IDisposable

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
      System.Diagnostics.EventLog[] logs = System.Diagnostics.EventLog.GetEventLogs();
      foreach (System.Diagnostics.EventLog log in logs)
      {
        foreach (System.Diagnostics.EventLogEntry entry in log.Entries)
        {
          Console.WriteLine(entry.Message);
        }
      }
      //Clean up
      foreach (System.Diagnostics.EventLog log in logs)
      {
        log.Dispose();
      }
    }
