I doubt this is a Windows issue.

I would replace your ram sticks. I had a similar mysterious issue on an old Intel nuc. Got some new sticks off Amazon and never had the problem again

Sadly it's one of the Arm Qualcomm Snapdragon boxes; none that I've seen offer replaceable RAM sticks.

I recall one of the issues leading up to their abrupt cancellation was fulfillment, so I can't help but suspect there's some potential (long-term) issue they couldn't work out for this dev kit's chipset. Maybe some part of the chain was held together with glue and "this shouldn't fail but continue anyway" and whatever hardware issue eventually hit something critical. (And they intended to fix this some time after shipping, and gave up halfway through fulfillment)
