I'm new to FreeNAS and encountered an issue. When trying to install FreeNAS on one of my computers (PC 1) I am able to boot into the welcome screen where I can choose to boot the installer. When I choose to install I see a few lines of output but then the pc freezes or the pc reboots and I'm back at the welcome screen.
Then I tried it on my main machine (PC 2) to see if I can boot the installer there, and there it works.

I created the USB Drive on Linux using the dd command.

Hardware Specs (PC 1)
CPU: Core i3 2100
MB: Asus P8H67
RAM: 8 GB DDR3
Booted from: USB drive

Hardware Specs (PC 2)
CPU: Ryzen 7 2700X
MB: ASUS TUF X470 Plus
RAM: 16 GB DDR3
Booted from: USB drive

Attached is a photo showing at which point PC1 freezes.

I have the same problem, tried using usb and CD as installer and updated BIOS. Nothing is working.

Seems like your system isn't compatible with the FreeBSD bootloader... perhaps try an older version of FreeNAS (I think 11.0 still used GRUB).
