He's not the only one. Laptops especially seem to crash regularily nowadays, regardless the OS.

I'd like to see hardware classified by boringness and thus stability.

I've never had my laptop crash unless I was playing STALKER, GAMMA. What makes your laptop crash? I'm not doubting you, I'm just curious.

Waking up from sleep mode mostly.

Every security feature ever made has basically started by absolutely dumping on S3 recovery. S3 recovery requires every device in the computer to give you a complete understanding of how to bring it up cold without engaging the boot flow. Sometimes devices don't do this because they are lazy, other times they don't do this for security reasons.

Had that until I stopped using the nvidia GPU.

I have that too! It started after an update at the beginning of this month. It seems to be a new bug that I cant reliably replicate. Do you have an AMD cpu/gpu?

Not op, I have AMD Ryzen 7, but I haven't had the issue. I have all Windows bloatware un-installed or disabled, though.

Edit: I had one issue (one time, so I forgot about it), but I think it was a user error (me). I had to uninstall Linux because I either didn't update Windows or Linux (I think it was Linux), and their security systems were in conflict. Windows wouldn't even start until I used the BIOS to uninstall Linux. I had a backup, but a lost of little bit of data because I couldn't figure out how to make a new one. I reinstalled the updated version, and I didn't have any more issues.
