October 9, 2025Oct 9 Recently my VMs (Windows 11, Ubuntu, and Home Assistant) have begun crashing and won't stay running for more than a few minutes. The logs to me are unhelpful, and I would be greatly appreciative of anyone that can assist me in determining the issue that I am having with my home server.I attached the diagnostics from the machine with the VMS failing to start. tower-diagnostics-20251008-2202.zip

October 9, 2025Oct 9 Author Hi! Thank You! I've put together a new drive, and it continues to crash. :( I attached new diagnostics as well. At most, I get about a minute. tower-diagnostics-20251009-1851.zip
October 10, 2025Oct 10 Not seeing anything relevant logged this time, does a newly created VM using the default settings also crash?
