Does playing in windowed mode increase your chances of crash

I built a beast of of a computer in January, i7, 7970, SSD, Z68 mobo etc....

A game that could wipe the floor with skyrim and spit it dragon bones back out... But...

In full screen mode, first person view I would get annoying verticle stutter (when I look up and down, the bot/arrow would break).

It was super annoying and frustrating and very common when reading online.


So I now play in a windowed mode (2048 x 11 whatever) and use the simple boarder less window mode to make it "full screen".... It runs solid, with never a drop in frames but I do get the ocasional crash (or skyrim has stopped running) error.

Is this common?
