The title explains it all.

Whenever I try to split panes, after a while I get a segmentation fault crash. Every time I try to split panes.

I have installed the latest version and my drivers are updated, still the same error. If anyone has an answer I'd be really happy.

Thanks in advance.

You should list your hardware in your signature. Perhaps your machine does not meet the minimum specs to run Houdini?

But you can aways try the basics like turning off all features of the viewport. Try disabling Materials and Lighting under the Effects TAB of the Display panel.
