Does anybody else is having problem with videos not loading up, "error" message coming up
on YouTube instead or is it just me? I can't watch anything for about a week as of now,
and I did everything I could that is required to run YT properly-
- uninstalled and installed programs, checked if anything is blocked/unblocked and whatnot. everything right as rain on my part - so what's going on!

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

Works fine to me. I watched one for half hour yesterday and tested one today. Seems to be working on my end.

Have you tried another browser or computer to see if the same thing happens?
 
Sounds like it's time to buy a new computer, Fuzzy...
 
Videos start, then freeze for a few and continue... the sound is fine but the video stops and then picks up after a few seconds.... has been doing it the past week????
 
It starts, then stops, then I get black screen with 'error' message on,
'when I clicked on it it says I need a new Adobe Flash player.
I already downloaded it,
yet it keep saying the same. go figure... :hmm:

Happened to me a few times before, might have something to do with your network losing connection. I have to refresh it again for it to work. But that's not the only thing that bothers me about Youtube, the videos is noticeably getting pixelated quite often and it's really annoying. :evil:

Ahhh, that...lol
My wifes laptop was doing that. I would watch the same video but she would get the error and adobe update but never made a difference. Check HP for all updates and download everything, not only adobe, but also flash and a few others, quicktime...ect....
 
I am trying everything. I want the last few hrs of my life back@#$&*@ !!!

How about just wipe and restore your computer to the original?

Do you have Google Chrome or IE7? When I had IE7, the Youtube buffering was terrible, but when I upgraded to IE8, there was a big difference. Might want to see which one yours has.
 
Eek, I haven't used Firefox since Google Chrome came out. Maybe try a different browser? I don't have any issues when using Chrome personally. :(
 
youtube works fine on both Chrome and IE for me (on my laptop at home) and on Firefox on work computer. Definitely try it on Chrome (or IE) and see if it's any better for you.
