So ive been having this problem for the past few weeks. Just built this comp first week of october. The problem is when (and its only happened while viewing youtube videos) is sometimes when clicking on a video the screen will just go to a light blue. It use to go to a black screen, but since i changed to window apperence to normal its been going to the blue.

I cant ctrl alt delete. Cant do anything. Just gotta press the reset button. I have the dedicated hardware enabled. Ive read that new GPUs have this like invisible layer on them where insterting them and taking em out 5 times or so will wear it down and solve the problem. Just looking to fix this before my RMA time peroid is up.

Specs are
i5 2500k
Maximus IV Gene-z mobo
MSI R6870 Hawk
Rosewill HIVE 750w psu
my monitor is an old NEC lcd. Been using it for like 5 years but its never done this before.

Does this occur with any other flash based site?

Not that i have encountered yet. Been using this machine for mostly gaming and havent had any problems. Just when on youtube.

Running windows 7 64 bit by the way

Seems to be a software issue. Have you tried HTML5 videos? Is it with one browser only or any browser?

Its happened both in Explorer and Google Chrome.

Perhaps you could try uninstalling flashplayer and reinstalling an older version.
