VS 2013 SP4 crashes when opening a Form with large Numbers of elements on Windows 8 32-Bit

Question

Hi, I have made a C#-Project, which is fully functional but opening the main form causes VS 2013 Sp4 to crash. I can build the solution an open all Files. Only when i open the form in Designer, VS crashes and want to restart. There are no Log-Entrys. Only
in the event-log there is an Event-Id 1000 with code 0x0000409. I can open the form on two other Windows 8.1 64-Bit machines without Problems. Looking on "free Mem" while opening in Resourcemonitor it crashes when at least are around 190 MB free.
How can I investigate this Problem?

Hi Frank,
If the same solution works well in other machine, I doubt that it is your Environment issue.
Of course, to make sure that it is not the project files issue, please create a blank solution, and then add all project files to this new solution, test it again.
Maybe you could delete .suo file in your solution folder, and then re-open your .sln file, test it again.
If there are many projects in the same solution, I suggest you create different solutions for them, test it again.
But as your previous description, I doubt that it would be related to your VS/Windows Environment.
Please disable all add-ins in your VS, maybe you could run your VS in safe mode, test it again.

To make sure that it is not the account issue, please run your VS as the admin.
In addition, the most important issue is that we have make sure that it is not the Window Configuration issue.
For example, when you run your windows for a long time, or your task manager is so busy, or other processes take high CPU and so on, I think they will impact your VS or other software performance.
Please restart your PC, close other processes which take high memory, please also close third party tools like firewall or the Anti-virus. If you open a few VS Editors, just close them, and then just open one, test it again.
