    How long does it take for windows to crash

    I had my old PC crashing about 3 minutes after pressing the power button. I messed with my setup. So now I can't get it to crash for about an hour after startup Although once I got it to crash after 5 minutes by opening and closing my e-mail program really fast

    I have an NT server that has been running without a crash for over 6 months and my Windows 2000 boxes are catching up on it too. My main system is a Win2K Pro and I havent had it crash since I built it and that was in December or January......I guess it depends what you are doing with them.....

    My main computer has never crashed, but my Tandy Model POS blue screened about 5 times in 3 min.! (Playing with OS and bios stuff)
