as the install screen and then restarts my physical computer

during start-up

First, try disabling hardware virtualization in VPC (File-->Options)
If this resolves the issue, the problem is likely a poor hardware
virtualization implementation in the BIOS, looke for an update from
the MB vendor.
You can also try updating your video and NIC drivers.

Thanks, I Did That And It Stoped The Short Crash Before It Restarted My
Computer, And I Also Found That Setting The Allowed Screen Resolutions To
Only Standard Ones Allowed Me To Finish The Installations And Succesfully Run
Them
