Flash Player not working.

[compline]

HI , I hope its ok to post pc techy problems.
Just recently I have purchased a new laptop with windows 8 and IE11.  Not impressed. But it is supposed to have Flash Player pre installed, but when I view videos, it doesn't work, the video is just a green screen, I get the sound but not visual. 
Anyone else experience this problem and how to remedy it?   

Thanks.

Yep.

You need to go to internet explorer options and turn off video hardware acceleration, then reboot.

Or just don't use explorer

Just don't install any of the extra garbage.
