What to do when Windows Vista Crashes
Information Week has a great article on Vista Backup and Recovery strategies. Seven pages of great information about how to repair a boot record, do a total backup of your system, and even crash Vista by pressing the Windows key and E, the shortcut to bring up Explorer, for about 10 seconds. This floods with Windows queue with Open Explorer in a New Window command and quickly swamps the system. I'm sure if you waited for 30 minutes or so, it would come back and you could close all the windows. Another tip to recover your system, KEEP THE ORIGINAL INSTALL DISK. I don't know why anyone would throw it out, but I guess some people do.
