For whatever it might be worth. The white screen of death as I call it, is due to Chrome trying to use hardware acceleration. Go to chrome://settings/ (type it in the address bar) and show advanced settings. Under System, uncheck "use hardware acceleration when available" and then restart. Good luck.
