Computer Requirements for Power BI

[Maureen]

I am teaching a course where we use Power BI.  One of my students has asked if there are any known stability issues with Power BI because his desktop crashed twice when designing a dashboard.  (We are using the free desktop version.)  Are their suggested computer/Windows requirements for Power BI to run smoothly?  I occasionally have a crash or have a student with a crash but am not aware of any known issues to help avoid this . . .
