Youtube crash

[BaDBoY_uK]

Everytime I try to load to a TY video I get a sound+hard crash!

2 x MSI 290s
14.3 drivers

Shall I pull back to WHQL drivers?

Tried underclocking cards and CPU... and even RAM!

Not tried:
- Removing 14.3 as stated
- Removing Creative drives for mobo
- Asking Jebus for help

 

[Puppetmaster]

tried reinstalling flash?

Have you tried removing the plastic cover from the CPU cooler?

I had to up the vcore on my CPU slightly when watching youtube at stock on my 290Xs or I would get a blue screen.

The funny part is running benches or really demanding games was no problem but youtube is a different matter.

This, i set lower clocks on my GPU and shaved a fist full of volts off it a few days ago, since then i have had Adobe Flash crap out twice in Firefox, never ever had that problem before.

This explains it to me and BaDBoY_uK, put a little bit of volts on it, thats what i'm going to do.

Thanks Kaap.

New GPU on its way anyway...

I cant believe that you tube can be that stressful

No problems using Youtube and Chrome here on a 290.

Youtube causes problems on 14.3 http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18589886

My 290x Tri-X is rock solid on everything I throw at it, but has blue screened a handful of times watching youtube since I installed 14.3

In my case I'm watching youtube in forced HTML5 so I don't think it's flash related. It's youtube specific tho for sure

Thanks all

I'll have my PC back online on Saturday, so will do some scientific changing.

1. Up VCORE on CPU. Running 4.4
2. 290s are not OC'd yet. I didn't even get chance lol
3. Reinstall Flash
4. Sack of Mantle and go to 13.X drivers

Have you tried removing the plastic cover from the CPU cooler?

Lol! Don't tell everyone mate!

Yeah sorry it's with Chrome. I didn't say. Weird also as no BSOD. Just complete freeze

Cheers

What are the benefits to doing that Shanks?

Tried disabling hardware acceleration in the browser?

I honestly couldn't tell you lol I just don't like flash with all its security issues etc.
Html5 works fine and noticed it don't use gpu but instead cpu.

Its with forced HTML5 on YT that I'm experiencing this tho. It's youtube specific, not flash. For me at least.
