Most of Vista's crashes were Nvidia driver related, and most of the rest was bad PR and perception. Vista's first service pack wrapped up a lot of the smaller issues, along with a number of perceived issues. Slow file copying, for example -- Files copied faster in Vista than XP, but the dialog stayed up throughout the full copy rather than in XP where it disappears when the file is fully read instead of fully written. UAC too caused a lot of whining initially, most of which went away once applications updated to the decade-old run-as-a-standard-user (unless you *need* admin rights) programming standards that date back to NT4. Vista has it's annoyances, I've yet to see an OS that didn't, but it's biggest problem was bad press and slow response on the part of hardware manufacturers to get their drivers up to date.
