Videos Won't Work On My Home Computer

[Sofa King]

Something is screwed up with my home computer. If i try to watch a video, the screen just appears completely green. What's really weird is the sound still works on all of them, some youtube videos work fine while others don't, some don't work until i hit full screen and then they work, and some don't work at all.

And it's not just youtube. It's all videos on any site, INCLUDING PORN, which sucks.

What the hell is going on? I tried updating adobe flash but i either didn't do it right or that wasn't the problem.

uninstall flash, reboot, install flash, reboot. fixed. you're welcome. :)

fwiw, this is my serious answer, most video players use flash. i've had similar issues at home before.

Is it just streaming videos or media files too?

Update video drivers, update flash, update java, try it in a couple different browsers.

Reboot your computer. As it's coming up to the Windows loading screen hold down ctrl V and F2. This will take you into the video access menu. It will tell you of the state of your video drivers and codecs. If you can't see the screen while doing this, listen for beep codes. 5 fast beeps means your codecs are corrupt and need to be reinstalled. 7 fast beeps means your video card drivers are at fault. 3 slow beeps means your drivers and codecs are both okay.
