Need help from those with computer knowledges.

Post by Ryan »

I was off from work yesterday, came in today and something is wrong when I view web pages. Youtube videos just don't show up at all and my hotmail/outlook account shows up all fucked up and I can't open the emails. It's just this computer. I tried several things without success (java update, etc.).

Any ideas since I don't know if I can get an IT guy to look at it for awhile?

Tried chrome and IE. Same thing. A lot of images don't show up, just a box.

Only difference, in IE youtube videos show up as white box. Chrome there's nothing there.

Could be a Flash player thing. Try uninstalling your Flash player and disabling all plugins, then reinstalling.

Didn't seem to do anything.

Apparently Flash is already part of Chrome. Didn't do anything in IE.

I would see if your display adapter/video card need to have its drivers updated.

Also, what Video player's do you have installed? Some of them can fuck with Flash if certain settings are turned on (I.E. Real Player).
