What triggered the crash? What were you doing at the time?
Can you do it again anytime you want, or is it just random? There is no cure for random... .
Is the problem one file, some files, or all files?
Even if you start a new file?
AutoCAD version? Which SP/update is installed?
Windows version?
PC specs? Video card in use?

If you are going to ask for remote help, you need to share information, we can't see your PC from way over here 🙂

Turn off LINESMOOTHING in R2015.
Turn off Win7's Aero Theme (use Windows Basic Theme).
Fix the file(s): open them with RECOVER command (remember to QSAVE afterwards).

If the above two don't prevent the text edit crash, then explore changing hardware acceleration in R2015.
