Help : pls win2k = 7 months of crashes

Is windows 2000 even remotely stable because it only seems to want to crash. I am running win98 only to give me access to frontpage-express. I installed win2k on same partition as per it’s instructions but microsoft advised me to use separate partitions. So i cleared harddrive clean, and now have 5 partitions 1)win98 2)win2k 3)data 4)win98 doc-temps-swap 5)win2k docs-temps-etc. When I had everything on 1 partition I also had vb-studio.net and system crashed only when using vb.net or ADSL now onsepearte partitions vb.net won’t install and system crashes all the time unless i disable ADSL firewall antivirus and cd burner.

I’ve used win-nt in past and never had so much trouble. Can anyone help?
