Board » Technical Support » Crash of Flash related tabs in Chrome

Howdy SOLers.
Using Chrome while SOLing, at last once a day my open SOL tabs are freezing and no further Client-Tab is updated anymore.
The only thing that helps is to close Chrome and restart it. As you can imagine this is more or less critical during a race.

Does anybody of you have similiar problems using Chrome? Any suggestions ?

To show some details of this Chrome-behavior, i attached some Screenshots

Shot 1: Msgbox in chrome http://up.picr.de/10929128ln.jpg
'Seiten beenden' means 'close tabs'
'warten' means 'wait'

Shot 2: Client is no more updated http://up.picr.de/10928991cm.jpg

Shot 3: These are the tabs i had currently open, just SOL-related ones. http://up.picr.de/10928993cj.jpg

Have a nice weekend
Regards Poco (Achim)

Hi Poco

Using chrome and win7 , never experienced this problem. However i seldomly leave my tabs open for more then 24 hours .

I get continually the message "ShockWave flash is inoperative and needs to close"
I use Chrome for all my 'sailing'---and I do not understand......
If it breaks, it's not strong enough--if it doesn't, it's too heavy.
I use Chrome on Win 7 Pro 64bit. Haven't had the problem while SOLing but have in the past. I now run a freeware named Secunia PSI (secunia.com/products/consumer/psi) to make sure all versions of apps are up to date. Making sure you have the latest version of Chrome and Flash seems to help and after each race I run CCleaner to clear the crap out of temp files. I did run SOL contiuously in the Lindisfarne Raid without any probs. I run SOL in a seperate window with maybe only 2 or 3 tabs for Brainaid other SOL stuff like Google Earth. I then use Firefox for any other browsing I may do while SOLing. Hope that helps. Oh, I also have 2 x 24" Samsung 1920x1200 monitors driven by an nVidia Quadro FX 1800 graphics card :-)

Similar freezing behaviour of Chrome here (and Safari and Firefox are even worse…)

Tall Ships Races 2025 - Le Havre to Dunkirk

Red Eye - Key Lime Pie-gatta 2025

Opposite the Bahamas at the tip of the Florida peninsula, we find the Florida Keys, a honky-tonk arpeggio of islands, where another SOL classic, the Key Lime Pie-gatta, so-called after the famous local condensed-milk-based tart speciality, awaits to be navigated once again. We’ll race its “Red Eye” 180nm in very-American Santa Cruz 52s, ignoring such artefacts as bridges, causeways and piers joining the keys one to the other and to the mainland!

Sail Around Turkey 2025


Welcome to the 11th running of one of Sailonline's most iconic races, where our fleet races the length of the Turkish coastline from Hopa (the easternmost harbour on Turkey’s Black Sea coast) to Iskenderun (the easternmost harbour on Turkey’s Mediterranean coast). It’s a 1,372nm race and aboard our classic, 1st decade of the 21st Century, version 2 IMOCA 60, you should be able to get around the course in less than a week. That is if, of course, once you get out of the Black Sea you don’t stop to enjoy the sights or a BBQ or two in the Golden Horn, or on the Marble Islands, now land-locked Troy or Gallipoli or any of the myriad Aegean islands, that you shall have to carefully navigate past.
