Chrome crashing MacBook Pro since updating to 10.7.5

Updated my mid-2009 Macbook Pro OS to 10.7.5. Since then, any time I try to use Chrome, it crashes the laptop - the only way to restore is to power off and power back on. How do I fix this? Thanks!

Thanks....I first uninstalled/reinstalled Chrome - no luck.


Then restarted in safe mode, installed 10.7.5 update client combo, installed Chrome. Same issues - Chrome freezes, I get the color wheel and then the entire machine locks up. The only way to get out is to power off and power back on.


I've found some other posts about this, but none seem to have a simple solution (I'm not a programmer/tech person). I am guessing there are incompatability issues of some sort since the update. I do wish someone from Apple would pay attention to the posts - they are becoming more frequent and someone should respond.
