It was probably a hardware failure that presented itself when working under load while installing.

An installation file without malware can't bork a computer.

This isn't normal behavior. Neither is the PC becoming inoperable due to an installer file running. I think sending it back to the manufacturer was the best way to go as this could be hardware related.
