About 25-30 minutes of reconfiguring per camera.

I'm thinking this might be worth trying on a single camera as a test.

Might try turning off hardware acceleration for the cameras as a test if whether the video drivers might be causing issues.

What is the sequence of events as per your event viewer?

Temp disable all firewall, AV, Spyware programs.

Run an offline memory check on your memory modules.

Check on BI website for version differences not just rely on the app update status.

Reinstall BI or do repair install.
Maybe complete uninstall, delete folders and reinstall.

Also make sure all perquisites for install are correct ...Dot Net version etc.

Run system file checker aka cmd: scannow /sfc

Try a cam with a fresh configuration.

Not sure about BI but motion can be done on the cam or through the server - generally through the cam is less overhead.

Good Luck

Slowly working with the suggestions given.

Antivirus, firewall, etc. don’t seem to be the issue.
Guess I will uninstall completely and try setting up from scratch and adding a single camera and see if the issue is replicated.

Back in business!!!!

Just started working things backwards slightly. Sure makes it a bit easier when there is pretty much nothing installed on the PC aside from 2 programs.
As I was working backwards I noticed something barely visible in the lower right screen of my desktop. Pretty much blended in with the desktop.
It said Windows Not Activated. Found that to be odd and checked my settings. Not sure exactly what the problem was but I re entered my Windows key and clicked activate. Shut down for a restart and fired it back up. Logged into BlueIris and it wanted my code for BI again to activate. Did that and BI loaded up popped all my cameras. So I started testing watching the live video and am watching movement for quite some time without shutting down but the cameras were not triggering. Well at least the program was not crashing.
I go into BI setting everything looks good. Try the update says I am up to date.
So I uninstalled BI fully instead of using my install disc that I got when I purchased the program a year or so ago I downloaded from the BlueIris site. Loaded it up granted it was the same version it said I was running prior. Thought about loading up a camera from scratch but then figure may as well try loading my prior settings again to see if the error in the Windows Key was the issue.
Loaded it on and boom everything is working. Cameras trigger, get all my alerts just like before.
Turned back on the firewall, anti-virus, and malware programs.
Still up and running just like before.
So either BI and Windows weren't playing nicely since my Windows was not activated or some how my BI install from the disc then updated was jacked up.
Either way I am up and rolling. Also I do not get the prompt to update the PC software when I view remotely from my iPhone.

Now it is time to start learning about the VPN world to make this thing a bit more secure.
