Graphics/YouTube/Flash Problem, HELP!!

[vellocet]

Ok ive had this computer since about August 2006, we built ourselves for about 500 bucks.

Now, ever since weve had it, we have NEVER been able to enjoy youtube/dailymotion/games/any thing Flash.

What happens is, let's say im watching a video on youtube:

Ill turn on the video, all things will be well.... for about 30 seconds. Than My whole computer will freeze for about 30 seconds at a time, then unfreeze for about 2 seconds, then Freeze again! GRRR, this happens with all the things i listed above.

But whats weird is, i have No problems watching movies in Windows media player, Winamp etc...

It would be AWSOME if you could help me fix this problem.

My graphic card i believe is a 128mb SiS graphic card.

If you need anymore info please ask, i would REALLY DEARLY appreciate it if you could help me!!

First of all, it may be your connection speed. Have you tried downloading a video and trying to play it that way? See if when you play one that is already in your machine , does the same behavior. Then let me know We can try other things. But that is the first thing to try.

Yes, when i download videos i can play the fine in Windows Media player, Winamp, and i can play videos on Ares.

But, i cant play any games on my computer, every 3d game i download and try to play, i can get about 20 seconds into it then my whole computer freezes, same thing happens when im watching a video on youtube.
