Host randomly freezing after Win11Pro VM install, cannot access until hard reboot

Got the box off of eBay and loaded with new ram. It is sitting in a wide open area, only gets super hot when the machine freezes and becomes non responsive

Hmm I’ll check what you mentioned- maybe I’ll consider getting a new server… let me know if you have any recommendations for something new, maybe a beelink?

Adding to my queries above - what PSU did that come with / are you using? Is it the correct wattage for the unit. I know that with EBay you often either get no PSU with the unit, or you get an incorrect/faulty one. As my post above - you really want to check that CPU placement etc. as EBay sellers are known for their car-parts body-building techniques!
