Windows does change, that's only natural. Your comparison with a test doesn't really make sense either. Let's rather compare this to any machine that is being frequently used. If you don't maintain that every once in a while, it will work less efficient, then stop working at all at some point. Developers don't have to update their software for more recent operating systems, but if they choose not to, things will not run. It's rather simple.

You could've argued in here, but whatever. I did name two reasons for BSoDs, I believe that qualifies. But alright, let me elaborate: it's either faulty hardware, faulty/incompatible drivers or software which is going farther than it should. In any case, it is usually not Microsoft's case, like way too many people make it out to be.
