For the last two days I have had constant problems with my browser and laptop, as both crash pretty fast (every 30-45 minutes) and regularly. Now I don't think it is a browser issue, even though I use a Google Chrome deviant and not Google Chrome itself. But it is not the first time I have used the browser intensely. Also today my laptop crashed while I tried to record a webcast.
Only then when my laptop restarted the "page file" settings popped-up! Otherwise I would have never noticed: They were set to 167 MB ?! I still don't know how that could happen, as I have 6 GB of RAM!
Browser: SRWare Iron v.16.0.950.0, based on Chromium / Google Chrome v.16
Laptop: Sony Vaio Z11Z9E/B
After I changed the pagefiles size to 400 / 4000, see:
It still doesn't work and browser and laptop crash. Now I ran memtest86+ (v.4.20) and Windiag and exported all the browser extensions and their memory footprint through about:memory
.
Plus all the other information through (Missing 2017-03-13). And the ProcessExplorer (v.15.11) about:net-internals
task list (Missing 2017-03-13).
I want to mention that memtest86+. And windiag:
I did not find any RAM errors. So either my pagefile size is still screwed or I have to search in another direction. My sysinfo file
I want to add, recently (2 weeks), that explorer.exe
freezes/crashes with every startup or restart of my laptop.
First I tried to "kill all processes" on it, but ProcessExplorer tells me it can't restart explorer.exe. Just for your information.
If anyone is an expert on this topic, I'd appreciate if you could have a look at my log files! Sorry that part of them are in German. Ask Microsoft why... (or ask me to export and reupload them with another program).
6 GB of RAM! Totally very much. Much more than me. Therefore I have a very hard time to think that RAM could be the reason. Therefore I voted you down. (No I don't know the reason why either). Brands models of computers ?? browser & laptop ?? both? don't get it I'm afraid. – r4. – 2012-01-24T07:58:35.690
Consider using translate.google.com for translating from german. – r4. – 2012-01-24T07:58:58.280
Olof, you can paste the *.txt / plaintext logfiles into e.g. Google Translate. Which is better, because you are gonna keep the original! I can't translate this at the moment, I'll rather invest my time trying to find a solution to get them in English right away... – grunwald2.0 – 2012-01-26T02:57:22.807
