I've been attempting to make a new mod for Skyrim on the creation kit and everytime I try to duplicate a world to edit and modify the Creation Kit crashes. Is it a hardware problem on my part or is it the software? I'm doing this on a laptop but i'd like someone to maybe give me a hint as to what kind of hardware I may need for this.

You cannot a duplicate a worldspace. The information is totally different fron a static object.
