System crashing when opening Google Chrome alongside additional applications
System crashing when opening Google Chrome alongside additional applications
My computer becomes stuck often while playing video content like YouTube, Netflix, and Twitch using Google Chrome and other apps such as games, Photoshop, Foobar, etc. When it freezes, there’s no visual feedback from my devices. I’ve inspected the CPU pins, replaced the GPU, reapplied thermal paste, and cleaned everything thoroughly—though I’m unsure if that makes a difference. My hardware specs are: CPU AMD FX-8350 4.0GHz, 8-core CPU cooler Corsair H100i, ASUS M5A99X EVO R2.0 RAM, Sapphire Radeon R9 280X Vapor X 3GB GPU, Corsair 850W ATX12V PSU, Samsung 840 EVO 250GB SSD, Seagate Barracuda 2TB 7200 rpm. My idle temps are normal, suggesting it’s not a cooling issue. I’ve also updated software like Flash, Java, and Silverlight, so I think those aren’t the cause either. This is really frustrating.
I installed Chrome about a year ago, and updating it resolved the issue.
Certainly! Here are some alternative phrasings:
- Perhaps you'd like to provide your setup details.
- You might consider sending over your configuration settings.
- It would be helpful if you shared your configurations with us.
Turn off Chrome’s native Flash component and switch to Adobe Flash Player. Additional options that may help are available at the provided link.
