Google Chrome crashes on Windows XP x64

[Guest Jean-Baptiste Faure]

Hi all,

 

Glad to try the new Google browser on my x64, but I have a problem :

Each time I open Options menu, Google Chrome crashes completely. No problem

at all on my Windows XP Pro 32-bit machine.

I know Chrome is still Beta, but such a bug seems very strange for a Google

product.

 

Has anyone experienced this?

Any ideas?

 

Thank you!

Same here. Crashes every thirty seconds or so. I found it to be unusable

because of this, and ended up removing it.

It's a very early beta, from all I have heard. And let's face it, google

hasn't exactly ever worked all that well with 64-bit anyway.

Here is newer build:

BTW, you can build the latest Chromium

Just tried it.

Portable Chrome 0.2.151.0 won't crash with x64.

Thank you so much, Roman!

Works perfectly well on Vista 64 Bit. Running it since the moment it was

released, not a single crash and BLAZING fast. I really like it.

 

Vista Ultimate 64 Bit is the MOST STABLE O/S I've ever experienced.

> Kevin, I laughed out loud at your statement. I am happy that has been your experience. Mine is 180 degree opposite direction. Brand new (month) HP M9350f Elite Quad )Phenom 9850, 6MB ram, Vista Home Premium..... I probably have spent 40-50 hours since purchase trying every possible "fix"... It hangs, crashes, slows to the point it quits accepting commands, varies from occasional flashes of greatness to a more typical buggy, recalcitrant, temperamental boat anchor. You name it, I have tried it. Had to restore 2-3 times from the hard drive sector, after that 4 times using the recovery disc because restore quit. As i said, glad yours is rock solid. Currently I am exploring downgrade to XP 64 bit. If that does not work, I will buy a MAC and follow that path. Regards

How many memory chips do you have? I've been using XP64 for a while now,

with three different Phenoms. I had some serious stability problems, and I

finally discovered that none of the motherboards I was using are stable with

four memory sticks. I removed the four 1GB sticks I was using, replaced it

with two 2GB sticks, and now my system is rock solid. For the first time

ever.

 

Try removing all but two memory sticks and see if it is stable.
