I'm not bashing DOS or Windows, but if that's true, you simply *got* 
*lucky*. You're looking for a journaling filesystem as they "help" in 
cases like yours. FAT32 isn't a journaling fs though.

but i want a unix filesystem, so far i think ext3 is okay, but it has anyway brought me some problems, and reiserfs did too, i wonder which is most stable due to system power loss? i dont need any extreme performance or anything,
 

I use ext3 with no issues myself, for what that's worth. I've read good 
things about XFS recently.
