HTML5 causing computer freezes

[Kralord]

For the last couple of weeks I've had issues with playing back videos using HTML5. Randomly while watching a video my computer freezes and I have to restart. I've reinstalled Windows 10 64bit and installed a new SSD to make sure its not my computer acting up. Please help me fix this issue id prefer to not have to go back to flash player.

Sidenote: disabling hardware acceleration didn't fix the issue.

Hi,

Does it happen also when using a different browser like Google Chrome?
- Start by installing Google Chrome and see if it the same problem will persist of not.
- Next is to run Windows Update and install all the updates available.
- Also do install all the latest driver for your wireless or LAN adapter and graphics card.
- Download and install the latest wireless adapter or LAN driver from the manufacturers site.
- For your graphics card, here's an article you can use.

Since you didn't mention what browser(s) you were using, here's multiple browser help:

However, most video problems are caused by your GPU driver. Uninstall, reinstall or get the right one.
