you have to understand if your PC has problems or if you are using it improperly (for example running jobs requiring much more memory than that is available).
In the first case, unfortunately, hardware problems cannot be addressed within this forum. In the second case, reduce the size of the job until you are able to get some result. Maybe, you could attach input/output files, just to let us understand what is going on. Concerning remote access to a personal computer, it is often quite hard. Most computer now have local IPs, that can be accessed only setting proxies of VPN networks, so a password from a system administrator (I’m not a system administrator!) should be provided. I understand that computer resources might be a big problem for those who want to approach first principles calculations, but sometimes it is necessary to reduce the size of our goals, just to make them to fit the available resources.
