Youtube Problem

I'm using Win XP Pro, 256Meg RAM, SP1...not installed properly & a Pent III in a Dell XPS T450.........

I get about 60% of my videos loaded & if I load into my Favorites the next time half will load.....theonly consistant monitor I get is a setting problem in the PRIVACY tab of internet options.....I made changes then put them back when it didn't work........I haven't made changes nor installed anything for at least 3 weeks....& my record for all youtube videos was 100 %.....The Favorite videos I've had loaded from over 6 weeks that were always OK all of a sudden stop working about 10 days ago..... That's it in a nutshell....there's more but I just wanted to keep it as simple as possible....I MADE NO CHANGES WHEN THIS STARTED it's on their end....they did something....so just don't go crazy making all kinds of changes & then go more crazy to put them back (unless you know to write you're changes as you do them) without THINKING, GET INFO 1st, & then CONCLUDE it's their Mess UP

Welcome to the BBS! It's not often someone takes a year to make their first post!

Are you saying that YouTube is responsible for a problem you had? Is the problem resolved? What makes you think it was YouTube when:

Why are you not using SP2? What does "not installed properly" mean? You are probabky overworking your hardware with XP Pro. Did you do an upgrade at some point?
Let us know if there is something we can do to help. I'm not sure I understand if you were asking a question or giving us a warning.

I was giving my system info when I started my post about my problem
with YouTube.....I still do not have it resolved......I was only stating that I
had not made any changes nor upgrades when a lot of the videos stopped
loading....including videos that were in my Favorites & working fine before
this intermittent problem started happening.....Anytime I make a change, add
programs or upgrade I've been keeping a log for more than 2 years.....The
only thing that's updated & not logged are my Avast anti virus & Spyware
Terminator programs.......If I were overworking my hardware the problem to
me would have started a long time ago....1 day Youtube loads everything &
the next day I was having problems.....that's why I think the problem is on
their end.....in addition I've been reading a lot of other people having the
same video loading problem I have.....

Recently YouTube posted a "Beta" version of its pages, and I can't get it to work in IE6 at all. The error message says I have Java turned off, or that I need the latest Flash Player, but I have Java on, and version 9 of Adobe Flash. If I leave the Beta page and take the old style, YouTube works fine. Hope this helps.
