From what I remember NT had some sort of time overflow that would happen after something like a month that caused all sorts of instability. And from what I remember it was SOP to reboot at least once a week. Daily wasn't uncommon either.

I think it was Win 95/98 that would reboot after 49 days. Not too many people got to experience that. I think NT4 might have reset the uptime counter after the same period.
