There are a few points here.

Firstly, for the crashes - it is unlikely that a crash can be debugged just
from a statement that it crashed.  If at all possible, identify the exact steps
leading up to the crash.  Also, have a look at
https://techbase.kde.org/Projects/KMyMoney#Obtain_a_useful_backtrace_on_Windows,
for information on getting a backtrace showing the lead up to the crash.  There
is a link to the necessary debug info on that page, but it is out of date.  Get
it from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/kmymoney2/files/KMyMoney-Windows/4.7.1/.

So far as cheque numbering is concerned, I have noticed the puzzling message
you mention.  In my case, it occurs at start-up when updating any schedules. 
The reason for this is that the code is written to produce the message for a
debit, but doesn't take account of the payment method, which should be only for
payment by cheque, and not for any other means.  I did start to look into that,
but need to go back to it.

If it's not too incinvenient, you can disable the automatic numbering.  Go to
Settings>Configure KMM.  On the left, select Ledger, then Data entry.  There
untick the auto-increment cheque number option.

On the numbering system not being consecutive, in the ledger for the account in
question, right click on the column header, and you will see two boxes. 
Unclick Use default, then, in the left box, click Number, then the right-arrow.
 Number will now show in the right-hand box, but at the bottom.  Select it,
then click the up-arrow until it is the top entry. Then click OK.  Now go back
to the ledger for the account in question,.  Now, all the entries with cheque
numbers will appear at the top(or bottom, depending on the scrollbar position.)
 Check to see if there are any odd number entries there and correct them. 
There may be breaks in the numbering, if a new cheque book is started, but the
automatic numbering should work from the highest entry number.

If there is still a problem, try to work out what gives rise to it.  See how
you get on with that lot.
