How much crashed? Whole browser

Is it a problem with a plugin? No 

Did this work before? No 

Chrome version: 49.0.2623.75  Channel: n/a

This is only happening on my new Dell XPS laptop. Dell reports that all updates have been applied.

I did more testing. Apparently the crash also occurs through the Dell docking station with an external monitor attached, BUT it only happens when the displays are duplicated, not when they are extended. In all cases the displays are different resolution than the main laptop screen (which is a high DPI screen).
