Chuwi lapbook crashing – chrome & youtube

[Chris G]

Some software issue I would say. I had issues with Chrome loosing connection to the internet but Edge and Firefox running perfect. Turns out it was an extension issue or some other software issue. A factory reset fixed everything for me.

Hi. I am joining this thread, since I am gavjng exactly the same issue:

CHUWI Laptop freezes after a while of YouTube playback in chrome, started a couple of days ago.

Since I don’t know what Windows updates ran in the background, I will start playing around with chrome hardware acceleration. Maybe disabling this helps. The whole thing might be related to the video driver?

If I find out anything, I am going to share.

install the VLC extension  and play YT via chrome over VLC – much more responsive and much lighter on resources.

….and if you really must use chrome, use Flash Peak Slimjet – it is like chrome without google crap
