Now this is quite unusual! I've been a long time Linux user, but no great fan
since I really prefer OpenBSD or in general BSD derivative! It has been
years that Linux kernels have crashed on me, while my NT SP6 now that I've
added a soundblaster live has the tendancy of giving me a BSOD quite
frequently. How can NT with MS audio drivers crash? This is only
acceptable if you are doing your own drivers or hacking the kernel.

Have you every though about docs? If you don't ave resource kit, that kit
other kit there is no way to get info about processes running un a NT box.
At least on unix you can do a man xxxxx. who knows what smss.exe or csrss.exe
do?
