I have a brand new Dell and have installed the latest bios, drivers etc. Lightroom runs great but Photoshop crashes right away. Any suggestions appreciated.

If you have any third party plug-ins, try uninstalling them one at a time.
Try rolling back the video driver if that doesn't help.

I have moved your post from the Lounge to the Photoshop forum.
In order for people to try and help you, can you please supply :
System info
Photoshop Version
Also go to windows network reliability (type reliability into the search bar) and look for the red cross at the time of the crash. Click on it and look for Photoshop in the list . Then click on Photoshop in that list and post the detail of the crash here

The system crashes ONLY when I try to run Photoshop. Lightroom works great.

It look like you having many windows problems. Pleas open a Windows Powershell (admin) window and enter
sfc /scannow
That scan will scan your windows system looking for problems and will try to fix any problems it finds.

sfc /scannow running...
BTW, as Photoshop trys to load, the last thing I see is "reading preferences"...then crash. Is there a way to edit the preferences file?

You can blow them all away. Set Windows File explorer so you can see hidden files.
Find "C:\Users\Your User ID\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CC 2017\" the delet the dolder or rename it. Start Photoshop it should the creas everything new for your user id.

uninstalled all Adobe. Ran cleaner. Deleted ID and re-installed just Photoshop. Photoshop opened, when I looked at Preferences/General it crashed my system again, as before. Can I get telephone support from Adobe?

Can you get into the task manger to see if Photoshop is looping or not respondind. See if you can terminate Photoshop with the task manager instead of turning off you machine.

the Photoshop flash screen displays stuff like initializing and then "reading preferences", and immediately crashes my machine to WHEA_Unrecoverable error... (the new Blue Screen). and then reboots itself. Ugh !!!

You could try uninstall Adobe software download and run Adobe cleaner the install the Creative cloud desktop application. Open that and sign in then install your Adobe applications from the desktop application. Use the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems
