It is the typical symptom that your computer is running out of memory. Time to split your document in several sub documents.

Here are some more comments copied from other similar issues in bug tracker:

To avoid memory related issues, we always recommend :
- to avoid using unnecessarily large images : a 100Mb image on a A4 pages is already too large, 30Mb is quite sufficient. And remember we always reason in term of uncompressed data : a 5Mb jpg file can translate to 100Mb of data once uncompressed.
- to split a document into multiple documents if it has lots of images, long text chains, or lots of pages

To split you document, two solutions :
- move temporarily images to another folder, so you can open your document without loading images. Then split your document and move back images to their original place afterwards
- open you document in a text editor and split it by removing the necessary <PAGE>...</PAGE> lines.

If you are using a 64bit version of Windows, you have also the possibility to use the 64bit version of Scribus. The 64bit version of Scribus allows to overcome the 2GB limit of 32bit applications and enable Scribus to use all the memory available on your computer.
