So, we all know what inspired me to create a thread like this.. That's right, my kind nature combined with my everlasting desire to help those in need!

Chrome has been giving me tons of problems lately. I'm not exactly sure why. Probably because I leave so many tabs running, with so little RAM in this pc. It isn't the extensions as I've gone through the list one by one disabling them etc.. It happens with Firefox too so it's probably RAM. As a result, my chrome freezes often and randomly stops responding. It just hangs for 5 minutes at a time! It becomes really frustrating as it always seems to happen when I need it most.

Anyways, I did find out something quite helpful the other day. Chrome has it's own task manager! This will allow you to close whichever tab is causing the problem.. All you have to do is press Shift + Esc and it'll open right up! Now i'm not too sure if this works for Mac or not, but it definitely works on Windows.

Really simple solution to a really annoying problem! Hopefully that can help some others out..

EDIT: Oh, apparently there's a PS4 competition going on right now? I never knew...:whistle:
