What exactly was happening? 'crash' is a bit vague.
If your video chipset really is that bad, putting in a cheap but more compatible video card would work around that.
The linux distros would often lock up randomly and stop responding, forcing me to do a hard restart. I could never use a linux os for more than fifteen minutes without that happening. Last time I checked, a few months ago, linux developers were discussing the bug, an issue with the intel graphics, on the site where they discuss bugs and all (I forgot the web address) but were making no headway; I searched the internet recently and couldn't find a proper fix or update for the bug either. Hmm, if possible I'd like an OS which will run with that hardware.
