Sounds like the Wind Database or registrations are corrupt:
this may get you started:
Maintaining WINS
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/windows2000serv/maintain/operate/18w2kada.mspx
The Event Logs also sound corrupted:
Right click each log and clear it.
It should re-build correctly.
Make sure you re-apply Service Packs and Hot Fixes.
