    i have new f-series vaio wich freezes randomly during desktop programs... I can run hard programs like crysis with no problems, but when im using chrome this damn thing slows down... After a while it works again.
    Virus-check etc. Are ok

    Is it motherboard, hard drive or processor ?(i7)

    This piece of machine will fly soon.

    Maybe your laptop is dying from what you're forcing it to post on the internet...

    1) If you want help, try not to act like you are seven in your thread title (that's probably why you didn't get any responses so far).

    2) what do you mean by "freezes randomly" and "slows down" Is it a momentary freeze of the cursor? Can you still use keyboard buttons? Is it pertinent to just Chrome? Depending on the symptoms it'll lead you to the cause.

    The latest FF, Chrome and IE have all been giving me fits. One thing that seemed to help a little is getting the latest Nvid driver from Nvidia. Not the one from Sony. Did not completely solve problem though.

    I have no issues other than browsers.
