Have you:

Assigned a coordinate system that’s appropriate to your map?
Is your coordinate system a projected CS and not a geographic one?
Are you signed in to your A360 account?
Do you see the Bing logo in the lower right corner of your screen?

Can you describe 'AutoCAD stop working?' What does that mean? Does AutoCAD shut down? Does your cursor freeze?

Does the bing logo display in lower right corner or your monitor?

Try this:

Assign UTM84-30N to modelspace.
Go to Geolocation Tab=>Tools Panel=>Mark Position Dropdown=>Select Lat-Long (see image-1)
On command line, for Latitude type in 5.261569 then ENTER. For Longitude type in -3.926760 (this must be negative) then ENTER.
Then, at your 'flashing cursor type 'Aeroport.' When finished typing, move your mouse to LEFT SIDE of Geomarker then left-click. Hit ENTER.
Type in FIND on command line. Type 'Aeroport' in Find what:' section. Next, OK, then click magnifying glass icon to zoom-in, then click DONE (see image-2).
Select the Geomarker. In the Properties Palette change the SIZE to 200 (see image-3).
Do not zoom or pan. Turn on Bing Maps.
You may now zoom and pan.

1-Insert a Geomarker.2-Run the FIND command.3-Increase the size of the Geomarker.
