Hi @Waller1942,
I apologize for the installation issues! Can you describe what’s happening when your PC crashes? Are you getting a blue screen?
Can you please provide your local-by-flywheel.log file? See “How do I retrieve Local’s log file?” for instructions on how to do so.
Also, make sure virtualization is enabled on your PC. See [Windows] Help! I'm getting a BIOS error about VT-X/AMD-v during installation.
