I've been having some tab crashes lately, mostly while watching videos on YouTube. At one point I even got a BSOD at around the same time as the tab crashing. Anyone have any ideas on this? I had a game running at the time of the most recent crash but that was working just fine.

I ran the system file check and it came back fine. I installed the latest NVIDIA drivers for my GPU. Had another BSOD during the first installation attempt but it looks like the second attempt at installing the driver worked. I guess I'll see if this fixes the problem.
