Slow YouTube Videos after Upgrading Browser

Asked By anonymous 7060 points N/A Posted on - 11/17/2011

I upgraded my Firefox 3 to Firefox 7. Since then, when I watched videos from YouTube, it seems slower than the usual. The audio is working perfectly fine but the video is not. What is causing this issue? It just started after I update. How can I fix it now? Help please. Thank you.

Slow YouTube Videos after Upgrading Browser

Quikee,

A few things could be causing your problem, and it may not have anything to do with the browser. Have you tried using another browser to see if the same problem is being exhibited? I don't think, the issue is with your browser while it is possible, I'm leaning more towards something else.

I would start of by reinstalling flash to make sure you are running the latest version. This will ensure that any compatibility problems with the new browser and current flash version are resolved because both programs will have the latest features and fixes. I would also make sure that you check the firmware for your graphics card.

While things might have been fine with older version of Firefox, but now that you have the latest you might need to update your graphics card to make sure the drivers are in tact and any bugs or fixes are resolved also. Start here and I hope one of these solutions will resolve your problem.

Thanks
