Youtube Crashes my computer. Blue Screen event.

OK, so, I have a Toshiba laptop that runs Windows Vista. The internet browser I use is Mozilla Firefox ( just recently downloaded a new beta version of it too and tried that, didn't fix anything). Every time when I'm on youtube, my computer shuts down and gives me a blue screen (sometimes it takes one hour, two hours, three hours, or more, it's also done it right after the computer starts, and I've tried with only youtube open, so it's not that I'm running too many things, I don't think). Then it restarts itself before I have the chance to read anything on the blue screen and tells me that windows is recovering from an unexpected shutdown. It gives me nothing when I look for a solution, but these are the details it gives me:
Problem signature:
Problem Event Name: BlueScreen
OS Version: 6.0.6002.2.2.0.768.2
Locale ID: 1033
Additional information about the problem:
BCCode: a
BCP1: 34000000
BCP2: 00000002
BCP3: 00000001
BCP4: 81FBEFF9
OS Version: 6_0_6002
Service Pack: 2_0
Product: 768_1
Files that help describe the problem:

C:\Users\MustangGirl\AppData\Local\Temp\WERC090.tm p.version.txt
I've looked in the youtube support forum. They referred me to the Microsoft support forum to look for a solution.
Then I figured I should check the manufacturer's website. At first I was sure it was something wrong with my DVD driver, but I fixed that and it's still happening. A little over a week ago, I did a system restore back to factory point, so I'm not convinced that that'll work, however I didn't start having this problem until AFTER I did the restore...so maybe that was it? I don't know.
Someone suggested that I've acquired a virus. I have anti-virus software.
And it can't have anything to do with my computer overheating because I use a cooling pad. Any help at all would be very appreciated!
Oh! And it happens in Internet Explorer as well. And I always check for Windows Updates on my computer. I download them when I have them, but right now I don't have any new important ones.
I was finally able to get the blue screen to stay long enough for me to read it. It said that it was shutting down because it detected a problem and was trying to prevent any damage to my computer. It said that if I had never seen the message before, to just restart, but if I had seen it before to follow a bunch of steps which I don't completely understand...
To check if had adequate disk space (--adequate for what?)
If a driver is identified in the stop message (which I don't know if one is) I need to disable that driver (which I don't know how) or check with the manufacturer for driver update (I'm guessing it means on Toshiba's website?)
Change video adapters (once again...no clue?)
It also tells me to check the hardware vendor for BIOS update (don't know what that is or how to do it)
Disable BIOS memory options such as caching or shadowing (still don't know)
Then it tells me how to get into safe mode if I need to do it that way.
Then it says this:
STOP: 0x0000008E (0x0000005, 0x8D8497C0, 0xA6EFB6B8, 0x00000000)
igdKmd32.sys - Address 8D8497C0 base at 8D803000, DateStamp 4851d0b0
And then says a bunch of stuff about dumping memory something to disk or whatever.
So ya...if anyone knows what any of this means and can help me out...PLEASE DO!
PS. A BETA version of Mozilla Firefox is my default browser right now since in the past I have encountered issues with Internet Explorer

Hi
To be honest I never had any problems watching the videos from youtube.
You will need to have the flash player plugin and I noticed that new flash player version has been released. So check this
Update the flash player
Back to BSOD issue it can happen due to hardware or software issue but in your case I think its software related.
If the flash update does not help, recover the unit again and test it with new fresh preinstalled OS.

  • IPhone5s stuck in recovery mode after lots of times displaying blue screen of death, cannot restore it as iTunes displays error 14 on verification, same time phone crashes again with blue screen.

    hi, my iPhone5s is only 3 months old, it has been like a whole month now since it started crashing, displaying the blue screen of death, since yesterday it was in the loop of restart-crash, and now it is stuck in recovery mode after lots of times displaying blue screen.
    I cannot restore it as phone continues crashing again with blue screen, when iTunes displays error 14 on verification.
    help please, this phone is all the means of communication I have.

    It's a hardware problem. That's it. You shouldn't bother yourself with this situation. Just see an AASP.

  • Firefox crashes MY COMPUTER!!! When I open it, my computer BLUE SCREENS then turns off!!!

    Within the past few months, I have not been able to use Firefox at all. It started crashing my whole computer, making the whole thing go blue screen before shutting down, and I have uninstalled and reinstalled it TWICE, the second time sacrificing ALL OF MY BOOKMARKS, and even after that, it STILL CRASHED MY COMPUTER! My college professors prefer that I use this browser to do my WebCT assignments (and *tests*) and I have been unable to do so.

    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox#Mac
    <pre><nowiki>Mac:
    Profile folders are in one of these locations:
    ~/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/<profile folder>
    ~/Library/Mozilla/Firefox/Profiles/<profile folder>
    The tilde character (~) refers to the current user's Home folder, so ~/Library is the /Macintosh HD/Users/<username>/Library folder. </nowiki></pre>

    windows updates were in the process of download , and the internet crashed before i finish the updates , and when the internet came back , instead of continuing to download the rest of the update , it said install as it's fully downloaded 
    and whenever i press install it gets blue screen with a thread_pointer exception i guess 
    so , why there is no option to redownload the update from the beginning ??
    i tried to restore the pc before any updates but it crashed on the same point so i don't know why and how to fix this

    In order to assist you, we will need the .DMP files to analyze what exactly occurred at the time of the crash, etc. 
    If you don't know where .DMP files are located, here's how to get to them:
    1. Navigate to the
    %systemroot%\Minidump folder.
    2. Copy any and
    all DMP files in the Minidump folder to your Desktop and then zip up these files.
    3. Upload the zip
    containing the .DMP files to Onedrive or a hosting site of your choice and paste in your reply. Prefered sites: Onedrive, Mediafire, Dropbox, etc. Nothing with wait-timers.
    4 (optional): The
    type of .DMP files located in the Minidump folder are known as Small Memory Dumps. In %systemroot% there will be what is known as a Kernel-Dump (if your system is set to generate). It is labeled MEMORY.DMP. The difference between Small Memory Dumps and Kernel-Dumps
    in the simplest definition is a Kernel-Dump contains much more
    information at the time of the crash, therefore allowing further debugging of your issue. If your upload speed permits it, and you aren't going against any strict bandwidth and/or usage caps, etc, the Kernel-Dump is the best choice. Do note that Kernel-Dumps
    are much larger in size due to containing
    much more info, which is why I mentioned upload speed, etc.
    If you are going to use Onedrive but don't know how to upload to it, please visit the following:
    Upload photos and files to Onedrive.
    Please note that any "cleaner" programs such as TuneUp Utilities, CCleaner, etc, by default will delete .DMP files upon
    use.
    If your computer is not generating .DMP files, please do the following:
    1. Start > type
    %systemroot% which should show the Windows folder, click on it. Once inside that folder, ensure there is a Minidump folder created. If not, CTRL-SHIFT-N to make a New Folder and name it Minidump.
    2. Windows key +
    Pause key. This should bring up System. Click Advanced System Settings on the left > Advanced > Performance > Settings > Advanced > Ensure there's a check-mark for 'Automatically manage paging file size for all drives'.
    3. Windows key +
    Pause key. This should bring up System. Click Advanced System Settings on the left > Advanced > Startup and Recovery > Settings > System Failure > ensure there is a check mark next to 'Write an event to the system log'. 
    Ensure Small Memory Dump is selected and ensure the path is %systemroot%\Minidump.
    4. Double check
    that the WERS is ENABLED:
    Start > Search > type services.msc > Under the name tab, find Windows Error Reporting Service > If the status of the service is not Started then right click it
    and select Start. Also ensure that under Startup Type it is set to Automatic rather than Manual. You can do this by right clicking it, selecting properties, and under General selecting startup type to 'Automatic', and then click Apply.

  • A205-S5866, "DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL/Blue Screen event", when connected to Ethernet,

    I will apologize in advance if I'm in the wrong place or if this is too elemental, I tried searching a bit before posting.  But here goes...
    I started getting the "DRIVER.IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL" message/Blue Screen problem event yesterday.  There are a few things that over the course of the last 24 hrs that started to appear as potential triggers/accomplices. (maybe I was/am reaching, I don't know)
    *It only has happened when my laptop was connected to an Ethernet wire/chord.  This was the 1st time I had used it, previously I had
    always used wifi. (without any problems)
    *It seemed to crash/shut down around when I would sign in or out of yahoo messenger or my "myyahoo" page
    Extra points of relevant info... 2 things that I did hours before the 1st occurrence:
    1) I did a windows update (the automatic kind, that you get notices prompting you about);
    2) I had internet service set up in my apartment & the company's tech did the installation. (also, I am from the U.S. and bought my laptop at home before I left, but I am now in Seoul, S. Korea, just in case that is relevant somehow)
    What I have done (after this started to happen) so far, is 1) used the internet via wifi without problem, 2) performed a system restore to before the automatic update, 3) tried again with the Ethernet & encountered the same problem.
    Thanks in advance for any advice/suggestions!
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Jerry & CristopherC, again, thanks for your replies.  Not sure if you realize how much the "technologically challenged" like myself appreciate the help!
    OK...
    ChristopherC you understood correctly, I have been able to access the net (& stay on for long periods of time) without any problems.  But when connected by the ethernet/modem I get those messages, etc.
    *I am trying as hard as I can to avoid the "clean wipe" of my cpu because as I mentioned, I am in Korea & I have a "slingbox" type thing that I am accessing back home to get American cable, and if I perform that, then the network connection I established will be lost.
    Jerry - You nailed the "stop #/BCCcode" it was D1.  The time I had the Microsoft "auto search" for a solution, it came back with this info.: BCCode d1, BCP1 00000004, BCP2 00000002, BCP3 00000001, BCP4 8BDD5DD9, OS Version  6_0_6001, Service Pack 1_0, Product 768_1
    BUT... I copied down the just the message info. (without the autosearch) 2 of the other times, and it gave:
    -Stop:  0x0000008E (0xC0000005, 0x82BF3DD9, 0xA6DE3204, 0x00000000)
    -Stop:  0x000000D1 (0xCBE46973, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0x8289DB4E)
     Also, I made an attempt once at the "Safe Mode Diagnostic", and got this other info... Prob Event Name: Blue Screen, Locale ID: 1033, OS Version (which seems slightly different than the #'s above) 6.0.6001.2.1.0.768.3
    I not sure what, if any, significance this info has. :-)
     OK, I will to do those hot fixes you suggested & report back.  Thanks again!

  • Plugging in Ipod classic restarts computer + blue screen!

    So I haven't had a problem with my 80gb ipod classic until last night. Last night I updated my itunes and then plugged my ipod in to sync it. Within a second a blue screen had appeared on my computer and my computer restarted. I tried again today and it did the exact same thing. I even tried it with itunes not open (so it's gotta be something with the ipod right!?) I tried a different USB, and no luck. Please help

  • When Tape ends computer blue screens

    When capturing from my JVC camera through the firewire in my sound card it works most of the time. However if the tape ends during capture the entire computer will crash and go into a blue screen listing "Machine Check Error" or something like that. I've been able to replicate it to when the tape ends and tested all my other hardware to see if anything else was at fault. Has anyone else had this problem and is there a work around or is it based on my ancient camera?
    I'm using a amd x2 4800, 3 gigs of ram, geforce 7800gtx, audigy 2 zs, 500 gig raid x0, jvc camera model gr-dvm90. Adobe Premier Pro CS3.
    I can mostly work around it but if there is some way to fix it then that would be great. Thanks.

  • Computer Blue Screens (BSOD) Upon Video Download Completion

    Every time I try and download a TV Show from the music store, the download will start and finish with no problem but upon completion I see the progress bar at the top of the screen change from the download progress bar to the other (likely file-moving) progress bar and my computer immediately blue screens. Windows gives me the standard "serious error" message at startup, and the error report returns nothing.
    I have tried downloading the latest version of iTunes which includes the latest version of Quicktime and the same thing happens. A friend of suggested disabling hyper-threading, so I did that and I still get the same problem.
    Does anybody know what the problem might be? Any help I can get would be appreciated. Thanks!

    Exactly the same problem - while running FF4 after a minute or two the screen goes black for 10 seconds or so and then I get BSOD mentioning the atikmpag.sys as the culprit. I have the ATI Radeon HD4850 with the 8.831.2.0 driver (installed by Windows Update). There is a newer driver - but I have had problems with Windows 7 32 bit and the ATI drivers constantly so only upgrade when it appears in Windows Update. No problems with the same machine running Windows XP or Ubuntu. I have uninstalled FF4 and gone back to 3.6 as I have no issues with that version of the browser.

  • Computer Blue Screen when VXI chassis is shutdown Using NI VXI-8360T MXI-VXI and PCIe8362 controllers

    Problem Description :
    Using NI VXI-8360T MXI-VXI and PCIe8362 controllers.
    The software I have is Measurement and Automation Explorer version 5.5.0f0 Problem:  
    We have had both controllers set up and working together to include running other VXI instruments using the MXI bus. The problem we are having is that when the VXI chassis is shutdown, it causes the computer (that has the PCIe8362 card in it and connected to the VXI card bus) to experience a blue screen of death.
    With our older 777178-01 VXI-MXI-2 configuration, our computer does not experience the blue screen when shutting down the VXI chassis while the computer is still on. Do you have information or past issues with the computer experiencing a blue screen due to VXI chassis shutdown?
    NI Software :  Other  version
    NI Hardware :  VXI/VME/MXI device VXI-8360T
    Driver Version :  
    OS :  
    Windows 7

    Are you using NI-VXI 3.8.1 (or later) and supported hardware for VPO (variable power on) support?
    http://digital.ni.com/public.nsf/allkb/6B1F05BB5C0E321186257950007424B2
    I think you need to "warn" the hardware/driver you're going to turn the chassis off, either via MAX or a programatic call.  Sorry I can't give any more specific help, but I've only heard about this and haven't ever done it myself.
