Try saving the Word document as an earlier version of Word, and then try opening it with Frame. That usually works for us.

First, save the Word files as .rtf and open those in FM. Second, Frame's Japanese .RTF import filter seems, for many people, to work better than the straight RTF. Third, some types of graphics in Word can confound the filters. If the import seems to die at the same place, check and see if there's a graphic embedded that you can remove and re-import. Your memory problem / message: what are the system specifics? Is there a reason to think that you're not running out of memory?
