System Freeze/Crash When Viewing Streaming Videos Online?
Sep 8, 2012
we just wanted to know how to report this problem of his where all of a sudden, he couldn't stream videos anymore without his laptop crashing.can i use the bsod reporting tool for this even though he doesn't encounter the bsod?he can view video files (with vlc for example), but when streaming videos like on Internet or dailymotion... his system freezes immediately as soon as the video loads and all he can do is restart.he's running windows 7 home basic 32-bit on a laptop with the following specs:cpu: intel(r) core(tm) i3 cpu m 370 @ 2.40ghzmobo: samsung electronics co., ltd. r439 bios: phoenix securecore(tm) nb version 03us.m004.20100605.leoram: total memory 2.00 gb usable 1.93 gbhdd: toshiba m3265gsxgpu: ati mobility radeon hd 545v audio: (1) ati high definition audio device (2) realtek high definition audio s: microsoft windows 7 home basic 32-bit 7601 multiprocessor free service pack 1
i am having an issue that just appeared. when viewing you tube videos or i tunes, i get a bit of static, if i scroll at all i get major distortion. this is present for all videos i attempt to watch. i have updated itunes, as well as the latest flash version, including checking the "enable hardware acceleration" option off and on to no avail.
i have updated my sound card drivers, uninstalled and reverted to a previous version of flash, and updated my video card drivers step by step, but this did not fix the issue. initially i was getting distortion while viewing Internet and random system lock ups that required a reboot. since trying the above, i am not getting lock ups any longer, but the scrolling distortion is present. it may be my imagination, but the system seems very sluggish as well.
on my computer there are two accounts- an administrator and a standard account. everything works fine on the admin account, but the standard account is having some video problems. i can view Internet fine, but if i want to watch other streamed videos it won't let me. all i get is a black square where the player is or the black box with an 'x' in the corner. it also sometimes won't let me listen to streamed songs.
i got this windows 7 computer last year and i have had these problems from day one. every site i go to just talks about looking if there are parental controls on your account. i have checked and there are no controls placed on the standard account. there really isn't any difference between the two accounts except that one is called admin and the other is a normal account. i just tried to switch my standard account to an admin one and i still couldn't get the videos to work.
everytime i watch any online video the stream locks up on an arbitrary time (usually within a few seconds, but sometimes well into the video). refreshing the screen sometimes works, but more often than not, the video locks up at the exact same place. i've tried updating my video drivers. i've ran every scan i can think of, updated my flash player, cleaned my registry and i am totally at a loss as to why i'm having this issue. this issue happens with the vast majority of web videos i watch from netflix, hulu, Internet, you name it. this issue happens in ie and firefox. i have the latest versions of each. it was happening with previous versions as well.
My home built computer has been having random crashes since August, but before then it worked fine. Historically, the crashes have happened in various situations, changing with each attempt to fix them. The most recent change I made to my system was to get rid of Norton Internet Security and replace it with Microsoft Security Essentials. Since then the crashes have become a bit more reproducible: about half the time I try to watch streaming video online the screen will freeze and the sound will stutter, requiring a hard reset.
I have run windows memory diagnostic, prime95, and various graphics card stress tests repeatedly, so I feel I can confidently say the problem is not hardware. Besides, this only started a few months ago, and my computer had been working just fine for a few months before then.
I can't get sound from any of the web pages I've visited. I tried to install a codec package, and it won't allow me. I am the sole user of the computer, I'm running W7 64bit with a X-Fi soundcard. All other sound works fine and it is hooked up via spdif optical link to a seperate surround sound system.
Therefore, My first question, How do I get the sound to work?
2nd question, even if is or isn't the codec issue, why won't windows update the registry with the codec installation package (1402 error). I am the administrator!
When I used to click on a PDF file, it used to automatically open Adobe Reader and then I could print it, make it larger, smaller etc. But every link I click now opens inside the browser, happens with both FF and IE. This means I can only view it online and not save it. how I change this so it opens Abobe Reader? I have Abobe 10 by the way
Is Windows 7 x86 (32-bit) or x64 the original installed OS on the system?What is the age of system (hardware)? <1yr (Approx 8 months) - What is the age of OS installation Same as above CPU? i3 550 3.2GHz?
2 ACER X223W monitors Having an issue where I will get a BSOD while watching videos. Have tried onboard video and 2 different vid cards and it happens every time. The onboard video was designed to support dual monitors as well as the video cards. Current video card installed - evga GeForce 210
Windows 7 64 bit with Adobe Shockwave and Flash Player installed.
On my laptop (not the desktop described in my profile) I get the following message when viewing any one of the videos using IE9(32 bit) on this website: ABCNews.com - Breaking News, Latest News & Top Video News - ABC News.
Error Saving Localized Settings Application is unable to access your file system
The videos play fine once I clear the message box by pressing OK. The problem does not occur on my desktop and I notice no difference in the two setups. Nor does it occur under Firefox on either machine.
Having recent problems with my windows 7 OS. I'm getting BSOD on startups. This started recently and occurs during idle or viewing videos. I've tried WhoCrashed and found out it might be my nvidia drivers for my mobo, but I've updated them and still crashes. I'm running windows 7 32bit.
I have a laptop running windows 7, connected to an external hard drive. I keep all of my .avi files on the external hard drive. I have set up sharing with the xbox - it picks up files in the following folders:
Downloads Public Videos Recorded TV
Videos in these folders can be played on the xbox. However, it doesn't pick up any of the shared folders in the external hard drive (G:Movies etc). The files on the external drive have been added to the WMP library and show up there no problem, and I have manually set the folders to be shared.
i always watch videos online on 1channel.ch and others, and up until 2 days ago the audio and video seemed to be in perfect sync and out of nowhere the audio is now ahead about 6 seconds?
I recently had lots of bsod. At the beginning, it was only when I was playing Deus Ex so I supposed it was because of the graphic card that was too hot, but it's now happening for no reason. Actually, the last ones I got happened when I was just watching streaming videos. On Vimeo I think, but I don't believe it comes from the website. Is it possible that the graphic card reacts weirdly and makes my computer crash when I'm only using it to read videos on internet ? I'm not even sure this is the reason why it crashed. I watch lots of videos.It seems that this is all kind of BSODs. Last week, I had two irql_not_less_or_equal involving disk.sys andfilesys.dll. Today I had two other BSODs, notably one system service exception involving fltmgr.
In addition to that, my Windows doesn't save the minidumps anymore. The last one I got are from 9/14. I can send those to you if you want to, even though I'm not sure it's really useful since they are kind of outdated.I have Windows Ultimate x64 SP2, I mounted (is that the correct word ?) the computer myself approximatively one year and a half ago and didn't have any issue for a long time, I believe Windows 7 was the only OS on this computer and I don't recall re-installing it, but I'm not really sure, is there any way to verify this in the system ?
I have a Windows Home Server with a lot of movies on it and until now I have only watched them locally at home. I wanted to find out though how you can stream them whenever you are outside of your home network, just on public Wifi or something like that.
i recently bought a "hp pavilion g series" laptop. the problem is that whenever i stream music or videos from my music file or from Internet, it always makes a buzzing sound.
I get a BSOD/STOP error when streaming Hulu. The BSOD will appear after streaming roughly 10 minutes of video, then the system is set to restart so it will restart. After prompting safe mode etc. it will start as normal and we will be able to watch a video on Hulu plus all the way through with no errors [code] I moved files from an XP machine to this system using an external hard drive and Windows easy move (inbuilt Windows 7 wizard). I have used Lenovo's One Key recovery to recover the system but the BSOD still appears after a successful run. I do not remember if the BSOD occurred after the file move or right out of the box but I suspect that it was due to the file move. My IT guy at work has recommended a full system restore. I suppose I can search for a thread that explains such a procedure but wanted to know if a more knowledgeable person could come up with a different fix.In addition , and maybe related I cannot complete an update using Windows Update. I can download the updates just fine.But when it comes to applying them, the system will begin applying the updates with the progress bar, but after 2 minutes, I will receive a fail message everytime.
Acer ASPIRE M3802 (details to follow) starts making buzzing noises while I am playing videos, especially when buffering multiple videos at a time e.g. in multiple tabs of browser. This starts happening at irregular intervals, sometimes just after 10 mnts, sometimes after about an hour or so. The system actually freezes every few seconds. This continues till the system displays BSOD or I restart it. After restart, it is fine for quite a long time but eventually the problem starts again.
If I am streaming a video online the screen will get fuzzy and freeze. I will then get the blue screen which will mention that there is a problem with my display driver. This has happened many times. I won't be able to do anything after that. I can't even turn off the computer. I just have to wait for the battery to die so that it will turn off.
I have a windows 7 64bit laptop and a window vista 64bit laptop.
I seem to be unable to view some of the videos on the windows 7 laptop but able to view those same videos on vista laptop. the error is normally "200, Stream not found, NetStream.Play.StreamNotFound, clip". Is it a settings problem as both of my laptops are installed with the same version of flash players.
I have tried to uninstall the flash player and re-install the flash player but the error still persist.
I've had my laptop since December, 2011. Brand new, customized it online on the HP website. I didn't expect it to have soo many BSOD screen crashes! And it happens at least twice a month.. I watch videos online like hulu or any other site.. and randomly the video drive or something like that will stop working the video turns a green color can't see anything and if i try to redo it.. all of a sudden the blue screen pops up with all that information.. then when i restart it i get this

My media player provides sound but when I try to listen to something on a site called oneplace or when I try and listen to news videos I get no sound. This is or a Windows 7 pc.
i have an hp dv6 entertainment pc with the intel i5 core. it has been a great laptop for the almost 2 years that i have had it but recently i have had some problems watching videos online. sometimes when i am watching videos on Internet or streaming from another site the video slows down extremely. the video doesn't even seem to move and it sounds like a super slow motion video. its like its someone has slowed down the tempo and the video is starting skip.
I have a Packard Bell iextreme with windows 7 and when I play videos it sometimes freezes, the speakers buzz and the monitor switches off. I have to force shut down. The problem comes and goes, only when playing videos, started recently. Tried updating flash, untick enable hardware acceleration, windows updates, ... still happens.

Just purchased a new laptop with Windows 7, it has 8gb memory i7 processor. This computer is brand new and any video I try to watch online, (You Tube, yahoo etc,) they are always going into buffering and videos keep stopping and starting. Are there any special settings to help this out. Also I can take my old laptop that has only 1gb of memory and an old processor and it does well, so I know it is not my internet connection or router?
