Hi,
Definitely not a laptop cpu or memory problem. I run Qgis with a window7
core 2 cpu with no trouble for everything except Lidar.
Try using the simplesvg plugin to save the shape file or maybe try a
"save as" for the layer.
Don't try to save a layer with the print composer. If you have funny
crashes, try deactivating all the plugins except to one you really need.

geometry (QGIS crashes) trying to print to a postscript file (will only
print to a prn file, which Illustrator cant read) installing Cute PDF
(doesnt really work in Illustrator) I am using a laptop with Windows 10,
32 bit and 4gb of RAM. Will upgrading to a new machine with 8gb of RAM and
64-bit windows 10 make any difference? I cant afford a new laptop, but I
need to output to Illustrator so will probably have to bite the bullet. Any
help would be appreciated. Regards Phillip Money
