My adobe flash player keeps on crashing. What should I do?

[Avades]

Every time i try to open a you-tube video and facebook beta applications they keep saying adobe flash player has crashed.. By the way i am using google chrome and when i tried mozilla firefox the same thing happened.. Does my flash player need updating?

* Run Reginout scan for active-x, file associations and other registry erros largely behind such crashes.

* Use official uninstaller tool to remove all flash elements from your computer.

* After completing the above task download flash player 9 instead of the latest version. Sometimes there are intricate browser flash conflicts and changing the versions is often helpful.

* Update your sound drivers if possible since the videos may simply crash because of the corrupted or missing drivers.

1) Open Device Manager

2) Find the sound-card device

3) Remember the name of the device

4) Uninstall it.

5) After doing this restart your system.
