@Zimdrill, thanks for the response @Deji2009, eko ni mo n gbe o lol, I reside in lagos. By the way i don't think you are getting me, i'm not trying to share my wireless connection. I'm the one who's trying to connect to a wireless connection that has been detected by my system and i use windows 7 ultimate so i could not try out what you suggested. Thanks for the response.

Network and sharing centre is what you need to click on for any wireless
connection problem in windows 7 and vista except xp which is different.

Do not confuse by the term sharing , I know you're not sharing.

Refer to my previous reply as it take me time to type and would
appreciate if you try that and if no joy then we can provide more support.

Generally when youtube freeze other video will also freeze. try what you did the last time
and make sure no programmes is running when uninstalling flash player.

I take it you're using firefox, internet explorer, opera or safari ?

Try other web browsers internet explorer or safari

Make sure no google chrome or google web acceleration or google desktop

If there's is uninstall it and retry. if no joy

click start run and type in temp highlight everything

click delete. start again type in prefetch click continue

delete all except Ready Boot then restart your laptop


If no joy open youtube video right click settings

remove the tick enable hardware acceleration then test


If no joy after you have tried all of the above, I may offer you

a remote connection support if you agree to it.

A remote connection is when a computer technician
moves your cusror as if he or she is in front of your computer.

This session would verify you've done everything advised so far
by me and my other technical colleagues
Re: Post Your Computer (PC) Troubles Here. by denzel2009: 10:57am On Apr 28, 2011
Ok guys, my personal fix for resolving lagging videos is ccleaner. It has always worked for me, all you need to do is clear the temp files, cache and use it to scan for issues in the registry and fix it. You'll see an instant improvement!

There's a green button by the top corner on the right - Download latest version. It will say your download will start automatically, if not click this link.

You'll get pop up that goes Run Save and ----- forgotten the last one.

Just click on run, you're good to go from there.

Nice one guys. would it appropriate if one of us provide her with a remote support and
who ever did can feed back the rest of us. That issue is likely to happen again.

She may have google chrome, google desktop or goolge web accelerator installed
or norton or windows is loading update in the background

True Deji, I have seen PCs with all the variations of toolbars in the last few days. People also feel protected using Norton, McAfee et al not knowing that these are resource hogging applications worse than trojans and malwares they are meant to guide against.

If she is comfortable with remote access, I could help her see what processes are running on the system that are not desirable.

Denzel2009, I am right here you know.

But I would appreciate it if you can help me with my computer issues.

Do you mean remote access by getting in my PC through yours?

Yay n00b alert!!!

It's not hacking, it is called remote desktop access to help troubleshoot computer problems by tech guys when they can't get the n00b at the other end to do some tasks.

The beauty of it is that you'd be in control cos you will have to grant access password that is generated automatically by the remote access tool each and every time you need help.

So, nobody can access your computer behind your back.

Hacking is a different ball game, not for the faint hearted.  wink
