If it’s Chrome, that’s because it crashes a lot in Chrome. Otherwise I don’t know.

I mean if it is the chrome flashplugin, that’s not very stable.

is there another format or video host you can use? all i can think of is to ditch it, i wouldnt know how to fix it :/

is it a video you are watching? i can try to find another version for you and post some direct links

If you use the Chrome browser see this: http://www.google.com/support/forum/p…

Depending on your browser you could try checking

They sometimes have beta versions and stuff that they haven’t brought out officially yet. Which might help fix things, or make it worse but hopefully the former.

Change browsers. Update Flash plug-in for that browser.

It might be another program that is running in the background is taking up too many cpu cycles. Increasing memory is both easy and relatively cheap. It would require opening the case to find what memory you already have. Most savvy 10 year olds can help.

And lastly, go to Start and type msconfig into the run or search box. Click on the startup tab. This gives you a list of all the “extra” programs that run in the background none of which are essential. You can uncheck all of them and then reboot your computer. None of those programs will activate. Try using your Flash again and see if it is anymore stable. If it isn’t, you can repeat the above to recheck those startup programs. They were not uninstalled just prevented from auto loading in the background.

Hope this helps.
