Typically, crashes and freezes are caused by incompatible device
drivers. First make sure that you have any/all Vista-compatible
drivers for your hardware -- video chips and SATA chips being the
biggest troublemakers I've noted here.

Are you trying an upgrade over your XP? You might get better
results with a clean install in a separate partition.

Go back to Windows 2000 or Windows XP. Otherwise . . .

Cha-Ching! Hear the cash register ring!

You need a new computer! Oh yes, then you need to replace your printer and
any other peripherals you have because . . . THEY ARE NOT SUPPORTED!
