Editor Crashes while importing png or jpg files

Hi guys, thanks in advance! I am running into an issue with trying to load a project into Unity 5.3.2f1, 5.3.1f1, and even tried 5.2xx to no avail.... Unity allows me to select the project and gets to the Hold On window, scripts compile, small assets import, but it crashes on random png or jpg files.

Windows 8.1 64 bit OS


Unity Editor [version: Unity 5.3.2f1_e87ab445ead0]
