Hello all,
My folks have an older computer.
(Please no replies that say "get a new computer." I have an old computer, too - probably older than my folks' - and Flash works just fine on it.)
I seem to recall reading somewhere a while ago that there is a problem with Flash working on a computer that has a 64-bit CPU but using Windows XP 32-bit version. That's the configuration.
What happens is that the audio plays fine, but the video lags behind and is choppy.
This happens in all browsers. It happens in safe mode with networking. It happens with hardware acceleration enabled and disabled. It happens across all Web sites - any site that uses Flash player has this problem on their system.
32-bit Windows XP Pro - Version 2002, Service Pack 3
64-bit AMD Athlon 64 CPU 3000+, 2.0 GHz
2 GB of RAM
Flash version 11,9,900,170 installed
All of the latest updates for the OS, Flash, and all browsers.
I'm happy to provide more specs - just tell me what you need to know.
Also, I notice that in all browers, whenever i play flash videos, the CPU spikes to 100% constantly.
I've been searching the Web in vain for an answer.
Would greatly appreciate any help that anyone could provide.
Thanks in advance.
And Happy Holidays.
