So on my Lenovo Y50 (4710HQ with 8gb RAM), I kept seeing "He's dead Jim!" messages repeatedly. It mostly happens when I click links—something that bothers me as an average Reddit user. I now understand the issue is linked to memory or RAM problems, and searching online only brings fixes for systems with less than 2GB RAM. This has been happening randomly; I don’t recall doing anything that could trigger it. Here’s a screenshot of my task manager and another of my extensions. Things I’ve tried: restarting Chrome, closing Chrome from Task Manager, removing or disabling extensions, restarting the PC (EDIT), installing the 64-bit version. If I open around ten new tabs at once—even just a new tab—not visiting any site, about five get the error. It’s really frustrating and has slowed me down significantly over the past few days. So far, nothing has worked, and I’m almost considering a full Chrome reinstall. But I thought it might be worth asking here before dealing with it myself. Can anyone help? If you need more details for troubleshooting, feel free to ask! By the way, it’s Chrome version 44.0.2403.107 (64-bit). BIG EDIT!!!

Chrome isn’t functioning properly for me anymore. It doesn’t open at all, and I’ve tried almost every fix—reinstalling, checking downloads, changing sources—but it still won’t work. I’m now forced to switch to Internet Explorer instead.

Which Chrome version are you running? I'm facing the same issue right now, and it happened after updating to version 44, which also changed me to a 64-bit version.

Consider updating to a newer Chrome version. You might try the Chrome beta or canary release. It seems your device may lack sufficient RAM, preventing it from creating a fast paging file on the hard drive, which could lead to crashes.

I think Chrome offers a more robust set of add-ons.
