    Hello,

    Just recently I started using Google Chrome, which worked fine at first. However, if I try to use Google Chrome now, I get a blue screen of death after only a few minutes of browsing. This happens every time now. Here is one of the errors I got:

    STOP: 0x0000008E (0xC0000005, 0xBF9568C8, 0xB94DAC00, 0x00000000)

    I did have a problem with a virus over the last couple of weeks, but now it's sorted and I'm pretty sure my computer is clean, so I don't think this BSOD is related to the virus. Also, Google Chrome already started doing this before I had the virus. Any idea what could cause this error?

    From your malware thread thisisu said
    What other browser are you using? Do you ever blue screen not browsing?

    At the moment I am using Windows Internet Explorer, which has pretty much been my only browser for years. I only get blue screens while browsing with Google Chrome, on any website.
