Hello Mike,
Thank you for posting to the forum. I personally don't know much about optimizing Windows to make it more stable. I would try searching online or
msdn for more information.
I would also try to identify if the crash is caused by a particular program or combination of events. Is there an particular error code related to the crash?
If you have questions on VI Logger usage with PCI-4351 and USB-6218, please let me know and I will be glad to help you with that.
Have a good day!
Regards,
