I have a core I7 16GB DDR5. Pretty powerful. Now every time I build an assembly once it gets to a complexity if I control and click to duplicate a part all of a sudden solid works will stop responding Is this a bug or load strain on the computer? because after each time I have to restart solidworks
Andi,
Are you sure it is really hanging and/or crashing? Windows changed the way they handle the "not responding" message, show it shows up much more quickly than it used to. I usually just have to tell it that I will wait and after a while SW comes back with no problem. In this case patience is definitely a virtue.

sometimes SW will cross the world the of the living and then come back but most of the time it goes away and doesn't come back. It only happens when I do a control drag on the main view If a place a part from tree or insert it no matter complexity or size of assembly it never crashes. for some reason If I do it on the main view even small part or small assembly not responding message. i run WIN 8.1 SW x46 SP1
Andi,
Sounds like a bug, since you can insert parts in other ways without problems. Since it is nicely repeatable, you should be able to send an Rx to your VAR and get SolidWorks working on it.

Every time I control duplicate whether part bolt same thing happens in Assembly it crashes and doesnt respond anymore
