I'm not aware of known issues with the BMP file format (should be supported ok in Inkscape), and the file size is not that large to cause Inkscape to crash (2.4 MB) in my experience, though it isn't small either (linking multiple bitmap images of that file size into one document might at some point exhaust the available memory resources when rendering the linked images on-canvas).

Do you recall in which tool context you last had worked before the crash occurred?
(e.g. the pen (bezier) tool actively tracing the bitmap image, or the node tool to edit/adjust newly drawn paths)
