Recently i reinstalled xp on my 3-4 year old machine because it was crashing too much. After reinstalling, it still crashed a bit. My error report said this:
Problem caused by computer hardware
This problem was caused by an unrecoverable hardware error that caused the operating system to stop functioning.
Troubleshooting
If you have received this error more than once, it could indicate a serious problem with your computer. We recommend that you do the following:
1. Back up your files to avoid data loss in case of a complete hardware failure.
2. Contact the original manufacturer of your computer to determine the specific component which is failing.
Additional technical information
Although we know the problem is caused by a hardware component, the error report does not contain enough information to tell us the specific component. It is likely that the problem is being caused by one of the following computer components:
* Random Access Memory (RAM)
* System board
* Central Processing Unit (CPU)
* Power supply
Yes, and make sure you use good quality components. Not necessarily uber graphic cards and super computers, just stuff that is well made. To make sure it lasts longer!
ME was terrible. 98SE isn't TOO bad, but 2000 is the best way to go. You can exploit a good loophole by getting a Windows 95 OEM disk and a Windows 2000 upgrade disk. By using the two, you have an infinite 2000 install disc, since WPA was introduced with XP.
I think this topic was locked because the problem was solved.
Who thinks they will get the new MAC OS? I really want it and I hate MAC OS...Or MACs...Gag!

Get Linux and use a Mac-like theme/window configuration?
One of my teachers has a Mac and he hates the OS. Don't ask me why, I never used it before.
The new Mac OS? Leopard? I'll be getting it just for that comprehensive backup system (Time Machine). Hopefully that'll work on my XP drive too. And support for ZFS

Well, upgrading/updating usually helps fix some problems. 
... ok a flash drive.
