What exactly does C-State do? Does disabling it give me any advantages?

My computer crashes constantly on Windows 8. It's not any of my hardware, I've thoroughly checked.

I found that if I disable C-State in my bios or enable Hyper-V in Windows, it fixes my freezes!!

I was curious, could there be any benefit to disabling C-State? I had wanted to overclock once I got my system freezes fixed, but I'm wondering

If I would get better results:
1.) Disabling C-State in my bios
OR
2.) Enabling Hyper-V in windows and keeping c-state enabled.
