At what point did the operating system fail? It sounds like the application crashed. A single application that divides by zero is quite common and cheerfully caught by NT and terminated.
Would you rather that NT catch the exception itself, and do some bizzare, ad-hoc guesswork and fudge a number? Leading to potentially stranger behavior as the OS is now interfereing with the application.
Linux would have done the same thing.
