reliability index really isn't

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance


I have a question or maybe a comment. I have a computer that has a
performance rating of 5.8, from my understanding is pretty good, I am
running vista ultimate 64. I have a reliability index of 9.29 or
something around there until I try to burn a video file to a DVD or play
Spider solitare and try to exit with out saving score or game then
system locks up. solid lock up, the only way out is to hard reboot.
Nothing shows in logs as to what happened. The reliability score drops
because system was shut down improperly, My comment it doesn't help to
say I have a computer that meets Microsofts requirements but is it
really not any good? It is fine till until I use it then it locks up
and is totally non functional is rather misleading. Is anyone else out
there having similar problems.
