LinX crashes sidebar... pass or fail?

Running LinX for stability testing, around the 10th run I still had no errors but the Vista sidebar crashed. Should I consider this as an error or instability? Or just a lack of RAM for sidebar and nothing to worry about? I'm inclined to think the latter. Sidebar actually managed to restart while LinX continued ticking away.
 
Well, it does indicate potential for instability. Do you use this PC for anything important, e.g., files from work, financial records?

Might be prudent to lower speed a little bit, or change some settings and retest.

Is this a repeatable thing--does it do this all the time?
 
I've had Sidebar crash on me out of the blue, so I wouldn't take that as a real indication of stability.
 
Well, it was happening at 4GHz and I eventually got other indications of instability at 4GHz so I went to 3.8GHz and removed all the issues. Thanks!
