hey there guys. well as you can tell, i think chrome is making my system lock up periodically. its not just chrome that locks up either but the entire OS. at first i thought it was Pokki, my start menu replacement but even after a completely clean install of the OS it is still happening and the ONLY thing that seems to be linked is that chrome is ALWAYS open and 99% usually active (ie. clicking on links, surfing the web actively, scrolling a page) when the lock-up occurs. it usually lasts about 30 seconds and then everything is fine, no crashes, chrome stays open and no pop-up messages.

I really love chrome and use it as my default, does anyone know a way to fix this issue or will i have to go the route of FF for the time being?
