    YouTube crashing my computer


    I think the major culprit of my issues lately has been YouTube and why my computer freezes and hangs after I go on YouTube, it also produces beeping from the optical drive. And before you ask: no, nothing's wrong with my hard drive or devices. RAM is healthy as is my CPU and GPU but YouTube still crashes my computer and causes it to hang quieting everything after it freezes/hangs. Mouse and keyboard are stuck and I have to force-restart. I've tried to update drivers (and I did) but I still get the freeze (last night, though, I did play some YouTube videos but not a lot but a good portion until late at night when the freeze/hang/beep happened again). I wonder what it could be. Can't be because I deleted Flash, could it? YouTube uses HTML5 for their videos and before November 18, it was working fine.

    :)

    all games crash!

    I suggest you run rthdribl > http://www.daionet.gr.jp/~masa/archives/rthdribl_1_2.zip
    Increase the window size step by step and watch your vga temps permanently.
    What happens?
    If it crashes, run at stock speeds as suggested before and retry.

    P.S.: When your system locks, does the display signal turn off after a time?
    Stuttering sound or no sound at all when freezing?
    What X1800XT model do you own exactly?
