Out of the blue (pun) my BI system first froze ( one camera dropped).
I attempted a restart as the cursor had no effect on any part of the GUI, and subsequently the BI would flash on and immediately drop out.
Several attempts to load failed so I reinstalled the program only to witness the same result.
The scene of the crime was the dropped camera I first noticed on the frozen screen.
Further analysis found that the camera rebooted itself back to H.265 instantaneously "poisoning" my CPU.
3rd Gen Intel I guess doesn't like that format.
Changed the format on the camera to H.264 and all is well again.
I hope someone finds this event useful in the future.

Ensure that hardware acceleration is disabled for that camera in BI. Your cpu does not support 265 HA.
