Using SNMP and e.g. Cacti  you can easily monitor bandwidth usage of your
routers, disk space on your Windows and Linux Server, etc. Cacti or any
other RRD-Tool based program is used for long term monitoring.

You can also use Nagios (+NRPE) to monitor all your hosts (including
Windows). Nagios is used to check the availability of hosts and services
and has a pretty good notification framework.

Using NRPE with the default plugins on Windows it's even possible to
check the Windows event log for messages or check if a service is
running or not.
