Strange Flash Issues

Post by JMEaT »

Hi all, I've been scratching my head on this one for awhile. (Win7x64 PC) It doesn't matter if I use IE8, FireFox or Chrome, Flash videos will randomly just be green. Not even limited to videos, flash adverts too. Videos seem fine on my Tablet and Mac... so it doesn't seem to be the source videos.

I've removed Flash Active X, the plug in version, uninstalled Chrome (Which apparantly has Flash built in) and re-installed all of them. Same thing.

Anyone know something I'm missing here?

Sounds like it could by the video drivers.

Spidey, as I submitted this that thought crossed my mind too. They are current (nVidia 470 GTX) but I'll give it a shot, maybe do a re-install. Thanks for the reply. Will report back!

Linux users recently had flash issues when they updated Flash, making everything blue. Some ended up going back to the previous version of Flash, while others were able to edit some stuff in the Linux driver system.

Try going back a slightly older version of Flash. If it fixes, then stay on that version until a newer version is available.

Thanks for the responses. Turned out I was a version behind on nVidia drivers. The update fixed it. Thank you! :)
