Hello,
I have a New Windows 8 Acer Aspire V5-571P Touch Machine, Everytime I go to facebook homepage or a site that has a like button extention the whole system will freeze Things I have tried.
Clean Boot
ReInstalled Chrome
Removed All Extentions From Chrome (it worked for a few days then the problem appeared again)
It will freeze for 20-40 secounds then everything will be normal untill I reboot the system again?
This issue has been coming and going for the past month and the PC is only a few months new.
I'm starting to think its a hardware or major software issue sinced ive tried everything even re-installing Windows 8 that fixed it for a few days and then the issue re-apperaed and no I haven't downloaded anything that would of conflicted.
The issue does not appear in safe mode or firefox the last time I checked a few weeks ago.
Hope I get a permanent solution
Thanks,
Spudster

It has frozen on firefox before but not recently it must be an extention or something being downloaded, It comes and goes.

Ive just tried safe mode again still does it. It is funny how it only does it in chrome and IE. Tried in Firefox works perfectly with no issues. I can use firefox but the only problem is that I like using chrome as my main browser. Guess I can use an extention for now to use a custom login homepage for facebook that doesen't freeze.
Don't know if it is a chrome issue becuase it does the same in IE. I have checked for malware with malwarebytes and viruses with TrendMicro found nothing.
Thanks for the help so far this is frustrating!

I have a V3-771G and I've noticed this a few times too. I've never realy put much thought into it. Let me ask you this... do you use your bluetooth?
