Bitcoin armory is pretty much the same as Bitcoin core. Any SPV wallet would be nearly as safe if installed on a online computer while taking less time to sync, if you are in a hurry, you can just import it on blockchain.info or any other SPV client.

Its not im in a hurry it just keeps crashing my computer, driving me mad!

import it?

Get the backup of your wallet.dat either at roaming/Bitcoin or your backup location. Next, drag the wallet dat to the box in the site https://blockchain.info/wallet/import-wallet. There isn't a need to run Armory if you just want to use Bitcoin, it is safer, sure but any SPV client can also do the job.
