Ever since Chrome introduced the feature of making unused tabs "sleep" to save memory, I've had a problem where the entire Chrome window goes black. Not just the client portion either. The whole thing.
Anybody else experience this?

Nope, but I don't know if the sleep option is on ... I just checked and yes, it's on. Which means it's been running for about 6 months or more with no problem. And it gets hibernated overnight rather than shutdown, so Chrome doesn't get closed often.

Thanks for your response Griff. I appreciate the feedback.

I haven't seen that, but I found and disabled the sleep mode a few weeks ago.

i wasn't aware Chrome had that feature.
i had been using a free Chrome extension "The Great Suspender" that suspends unused tabs.
Then, Google blocked that, and i started using "Tab Session Manager." [^].
i'll try turning on the Google feature,.
thanks, bill

Glad I could put some light on that for you!

mmmm ... in latest Chrome on Windows (10/64) i am only seeing a memory saver in Settings/Performance where you add specific sites.
and, in Settings/On Startup: an option to resume where you "left off."
with these enabled and google.com added to "keep active" ... i sure do hope i will not lose my tabs !
thanks, bill

Not just Chrome, but entire Windows shows a BSOD (which I call as Black Screen of Dumbness). And the screen starts flickering.
Was initially thinking it was a problem with my display driver, but everything is the latest and greatest.
Cannot find a reproducible pattern, but it most likely is related to Chrome.
(Black screen of Dumbness, because the entire screen will be black, and unresponsive for a few moments, and when I use Alt Tab to shift focus, the screen comes back to life)

That happens occasionally on my home HP Elitedesk Mini with it blacking out then coming back in a cycle.
I think it's something to do with the Displayport to HDMI Adapter or GPU(memory leakage or something...), as if I unplug the screen cable then plug it back in the issue is fixed for a while.

I haven't got hard mode turned on, but most of the time I play that way.

Twitter is such a mess.

I'm sure he'll survive me pointing and laughing at him. If he doesn't want to be laughed at he shouldn't do and say things that evoke laughter at his expense.
