Try this
- Import just one topic
- Go to topic properties and remove the template association
- View.
It that works, try a couple more viewing after each file.
If still working, import one template and associate it with one topic. Try again.
Let me know how that goes. Stop as soon as it breaks.

The easy way to remove all the topics association with a master page is to select them in all in the Topic List, go to Properties and select None under the Master Page field. I did try that but what I didn't do was then delete the Master Pages from the project.
That all needs to be done in RoboHelp 7 before you upgrade. Do you still have that installed or can you put it on a separate machine?

You have one project correct? Also you have it in RoboHelp 9 but it crashes if you attempt to view, correct?
Removing the association with the master page takes just a minute or so as that can be done to all topics at the same time. You are apply that change to all topics at the same time, correct?
If I have followed the project will still crash if the master pages are in the project. That's odd but if that's the way it is, again that is a quick task.
At that point you have a project with all your topics and it is working. Create a backup.
Now import the master pages one at a time and test after each one. Hopefully that will show it is just one master page or, at the least, not all of them. If you can track which one, you can return to the backup and just fix those topics. Do so in a copy of the backup to be safe.
