tech challenged...youtube
on: August 08, 2007, 02:11:04 AM
I'm new to using youtube - Most every time I play them on my computer they break up, temporarily freeze, etc. at some point during play. I think I have the proper hardware (high-speed DSL, 1 gig ram, Pentium 4) so what causes this and does this happen to everyone?

It could be your DSL... what's the actual speed of it?

Barring any hardware issues, and seeing as you have a fast connection speed, you may just need to upgrade your software.
