My laptop is no longer loading the internet correctly, how do I fix it?

[tallpollution983]

Okay so a couple of days ago I was listening to music on youtube and something just... stopped working. I was about to go to work so I didn't pay much attention to it.

Basically what is happening now is I can load any page I want, no problem but when it comes to playing a video of any kind... not gonna happen. Sometimes it works, I get to watch like 20 seconds before the screen just goes black or doesn't load any more. So it does load a little bit.

It's not the internet connection because my friends laptop works perfectly fine. It's not my wireless because I bought a wire and plugged it into the router. I've never had this problem before and it's really strange because it loads any and all pages fine, but the vids don't work. I don't think it's my video card either because it will load a little bit before then deciding, actually, no.

Help?

Its not your graphics card because it displays images. As Alan917 says it is most likely your flash player that is the problem. I suggest uninstalling it completely and reinstalling it. Try using a different browser like firefox and IE.

pls update or install a virus guard and scan your system first. Avira is good.

also pls run advanced system care and scan in advanced mode

pls install another browser .chrome/opera /Firefox and install flash player new version and test.
