Yo guys,just updated my Firefox to latest ver. 3.6.15,then got a prompt telling me to update my flash player plugin,which i proceeded as usual.
Went to Youtube to test stability,next thing i know,screen freezes up,went black & finally BSOD, EACH & EVERYTIME i open a video from Youtube.
Version of the flash player i was using when BSOD is Adobe FLash player is 10.2.152.32,now went back to old ver 10.0.12.36,no more issues.BTW,i am using latest ATI 11.2 drivers & there were no problems until this flash update.
Just a heads up to all who is thinking of upgrading to latest flash player.

Check if you have hardware acceleration enabled. I also experienced this issue when I first received my M15X and turning off hardware acceleration cleared the problem completely. Go here: Adobe - Flash Player
Click on the animation, uncheck the box that says hardware acceleration and try watching a youtube video. -
Ok,uncheck the "hardware acceleration" option,still using the old version of adobe flash though.(if it ain't broke,why fix it?).Anyway,thanks bro for the info,cheers
Latest Adobe flash plugin = BSOD?
