SharePoint Designer Crash when opening a CSS file of 7k lines of code

Question

My colleague's SharePoint Designer 2010 keeps crashing whenever he tries to open a stylesheet file that has more than 7,000 lines of code..

note that in my machine I can open files that has even more than 10,000 lines..

take in mind that we did the following..

running environment Windows Server 2008 R2

but nothing seem to be working so far... any suggestions please ?

Is the SPD located on the environment or his local computer? — user2536, Oct 16 '12 at 13:19
SPD and the environment are on the same computer (his local computer) — Anas Nakawa, Oct 16 '12 at 17:12

Try the 64-bit version of SharePoint Designer.

we couldn't install the 64-bit version, because the installed office on the machine is a 32-bit – Anas Nakawa Oct 17 '12 at 5:13
For testing, I would try uninstalling all of Office so that you can try the 64-bit version. If it works for you, then install the 64-bit version of Office (for 2010 it is on the same disk and will automatically use that version if SPD 64-bit is installed). – John Chapman Oct 17 '12 at 13:50
