Lately (starting about 3 months ago) when I visit certain websites my computer will completely freeze. It has happened most notably when visiting Facebook and Imgur, but rarely as I can visit those sites often and this only happens like 1% of the time, making it hard to find patterns of what causes it. It seems to be that if something starts to load and I input another command, whether that be clicking or hitting the back button, Google Chrome will freeze visually. I can still move my mouse for a little while, and background tabs like youtube or pandora will continue to stream but I can't tab over to them. I can't interact with abything on the screen with the mouse, and no visuals appear when hovering over things. After a while though that will stop, my mouse will freeze, and even the caps lock light on my keyboard won't light up when I hit the button. My only option then is to hold the power button until it shuts off.I have tried to troubleshoot online but I can't describe it well enough in the google search to get any good results.I am running an Asus ROG laptop with 16GB of RAM, Intel I-7, and Intel HD Graphics alongside an Nvidia graphics card. This has only happened on Google Chrome, as I don't use other web browsers.Any help is appreciated or links to others with similar problems. I have already lost unsaved data due to this crash and really want to figure it out. Until I do though, I'll probably just not visit either Facebook or Imgur.
