AmpCoder Share Posted June 6, 2005 The only time I had a BSOD in WinXP is when I installed a bad stick of memory. Other than that, I have never had a software-related BSOD happen. Link to post Share on other sites
WarStorm Share Posted June 6, 2005 Mine has hardly ever crashed like twice in the 2 year+ ive had it Link to post Share on other sites
Hypoxiaicon Share Posted June 6, 2005 Very rare got a BSOD. Unless I overclocked or something. I think ive only had 2-3 in a few years that where random and not caused by me Link to post Share on other sites
Max Veteran Share Posted June 6, 2005 About once a year. Mainly due to the fact that the system is smack bang on the edge of instability, it stays stable, but that once in a while it crosses the line. *Wishes CPU's could be adjusted 0.1Mhz* Link to post Share on other sites

micro Share Posted June 6, 2005 winxp crashes on me like every year or so, from crap loadin and loadin up, otherwise its stable as a rock for me, runs 24/7 great :D Link to post Share on other sites
cjrciadt Share Posted June 6, 2005 The same as most driver error (sound card) and ATI driver failure. I can imagine what developers will have to do design drivers for the Mactel machines. Link to post Share on other sites
mayamaniac Share Posted June 6, 2005 for XP and 2003, on intel mobo: very rare to see a crash, don't remember last time it crashed. on AMD mobo: crashes more often. so, its not the OS, but more of hardware. Link to post Share on other sites
Lexcyn Share Posted June 6, 2005 My XP installation has never crashed or BSOD'd on me. :ninja: Link to post Share on other sites
Boxster17 Share Posted June 6, 2005 Never really get the BSOD. Got it after I first built my computer, and found out it was a problem with my RAM working in dual channel mode, since then haven't had a single problem. Link to post Share on other sites
entropyx Share Posted June 6, 2005 once or twice a day. i have some bad drivers somewhere but don't care enough to find them and fix it. Link to post Share on other sites
Devil Fish Share Posted June 6, 2005 XP Pro since it came out. Never crashed or had a BSOD. Rock Solid, but I guess good housekeeping and a happy marriage of hardware helps as well. Link to post Share on other sites
DirtyLarry Veteran Share Posted June 6, 2005 I have only seen a BSOD twice in my life on my home comps. Now freezing, meaning it is just totally unresponsive, well that happens a little more often, 95% while playing a game, and usually some sound stuttering right before the freeze as well. So I am assuming that is driver related, and my bet is on my Audio drivers as well. Link to post Share on other sites
+virtorio MVC Share Posted June 6, 2005 It might have crashed back in 2002, but that could have just been a power cut. Link to post Share on other sites
UnnamedStone Share Posted June 6, 2005 If I am testing on drivers, it crashes couples times a day. If not, it may takes 6 months or longer to see the blue screen. Link to post Share on other sites
Kenny McCormick Share Posted June 6, 2005 When I used Windows 9x I got them all the time but I havent got any after I switched to Windows 2000. Link to post Share on other sites
