Spanish term or phrase: que no se cuelguen

Es una encuesta que Microsoft realiza a sus usuarios de productos.
Uno de los encuestados dice: "A nivel particular estabilidad de sus productos 'que no se cuelguen' Hoy todo el mundo suele tener windows en casa..."
¿Cómo se podría decir en inglés colgarse en este sentido? Que, segú entiendo yo, sería lo mismo que tildarse. Muchas gracias. Todas las sugerencias son bienvenidas.

A crash in computing is a condition where a program (either an application or part of the operating system) stops performing its expected function and also stops responding to other parts of the system. Often the offending program may simply appear to freeze. If this program is a critical part of the operating system kernel the entire computer may crash (a system crash).
