I have same problem with my AMD XP 1700, and as far as I know, I have found out, the reason for crashing is "Windows idle tasks" system, which runs when computer is idle or sometimes when there is low process amount. I bumped into document description idle tasks and there was also command how to force Windows run these idle tasks by commandline. %windir%\System32\Rundll32.exe advapi32.dll,ProcessIdleTasks

Normally, this command would process all idle tasks and thus, flush to processing times but as estimated, It crashed (or jammed, freezed) Windows as it does sometimes when idle. So if this is a problem, what is the solution?

Dunno. But I am going to find out ;). If running that command also crashes your computers which seem to hang sometimes on idle, then we all have common problem and finding solution is little bit easier.
