SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION trying to install Windows 11

I recently received my computer (Alienware Aurora R8) back from Dell because they had to replace a failed NVME SSD drive. It came back with Windows 10 (which is what it had when I originally bought it) and I'm trying to upgrade it back to Windows 11. However, every time I try (4 or 5 times now) I get a BSOD with the SYSTEM_SERVICE_EXCEPTION error at 48% completion. The Windows 11 installer gives me this error code: 0xC1900101 - 0x30018. I've updated all drivers, installed all Windows updates, unplugged everything but the monitor, mouse and keyboard and run every scan and repair tool I was able to find mentioned on various sites. Can't figure out what is causing the issue. Can anyone please help me figure this out? Thanks!
