Its hard to diagnose this problem.
My computer (win7) crashes and freezes when running youtube vids on Firefox and Chrome. And will just crash with use on Firefox now. The youtube crashing occurrs a few minutes into a video on firefox and chrome.
When restarting Firefox with the restore window, sometimes it blanks out tabs with a Blank tab, and after I start it up, close it, and restart it, the restore window will start up again. When just going to download a fresh version of Firefox, comp and browser crash before I can get to it hile surfing the Mozilla pages for the download link.
I am using IE right now, because I rarely use it. My Hard drive seems fine. I have a virus check, error check, and transfer speed check. Running stored vids, mp4 and avi work fine. I only get problems when working in a browser.
It would seem that something both applications use is corrupted. The only thing I can think of is Adobe flash. There are two instances of it running in the background when I run Firefox (did not check for Chrome). But, when surfing the Mozilla website, it should not be using a flash player right?
EDIT, I went to the Mozilla website after restoring Firefox, and I just remembered I had a pinned tab on a youtube video. I have uninstalled adobeflash, and Will try to check it again, after doing some backups. It what I describe a symptom of Adobe Flash corruption? I am hoping someone can help because I must turn off comp and restart it whenever I get the problem.
