Ever since the latest windows update my computer has been randomly freezing while watching youtube videos or playing games alongside a loud droning robotic sounding buzzing noise that plays the audio in slow motion. If a wait a min or two my computer resumes normally. All my temps are fine. what the hells going on?

Ran a memory test and my ram is fine

Gtx 680 2gb
8gb ddr3 ram

i actually removed flash my laptop altogether too (2013 13" retina macbook pro). on my desktop (windows 7 ult pro x64, specs in the sig) i have flash disabled in my default browser, which is firefox. i keep chrome for those times when i absolutely need flash.

you can actually change your default youtube format to HTML5 rather than flash. which is what i did. check this page out: https://www.youtube.com/html5

I just looked at my update logs and yeeep sure enough I installed a flashplayer update as well

I already tried to go back to a restore point before I had my updates but it failed and apparently corrupted the restore point .-.

are there lots of people currently having issues with the new flash update?

flash player has been problematic for years. it's just a terrible piece of software. that's why everyone from android to Mac OS X has dumped it. i've had this issue too. i had to completely remove flash player (do a registry clean up and all) and re install it.

also, chrome has its own built in version of flash player written by google. might want to give that a whirl to see if that helps out.

SOOOO so far I've been playing the most intensive game I own (skyrim completely modded out with an intense enb preset) and watching videos on youtube. All has been well.....BUT

I went on tumblr and when someones music started playing on their blog (which was ripped from youtube) i got the same slow droning robotic sounding buzzing and my computer froze for about 40 seconds.

So this seems to be a flash issue, I already uninstalled via the control panel and I WOULD do a registry cleanup but I have no idea what I should delete from said registry...

if you could point me in the direction of how to go about deleting it completely i would be a happy man

Well after going through and completely deleting adobe flash my problems have gone! I'm still going to keep the thread open for a while to see if anyone has another opinion on this or if there's something else I should do.
