  21. Funny, I haven't had a single problem since getting it installed.
  22. Installation took a little while (mainly because I didn't read
  23. the manual first), but once it was installed it was smooth sailing.

  25. PC Magazine ran a test a while back where they compared a bunch of
  26. the OS.  As far as the tests they ran, Windows NT did not crash

  29. Maybe your problems are hardware related?  I don't know, but the
  30. sheer number of problems you are having sounds fishy.
